Change is the law of the universe. Without change, the world would not merely remain in a static state, but it would soon become stale and stagnant. Without change there would be no progress, for change is the essence of betterment. It is obvious that to do anything in a new and better way there must be a change.
Many people look upon change with dread and foreboding. But for those on the spiritual path—for those who believe in God and the power of prayer—change is a fuller expression of life.
When a problem or condition arises in your life that indicates a change, rely upon God, and realize that it is not so much that a door has closed on a chapter of your life, but rather that a door has opened on new and more interesting things.
Behold, I make all things new (Revelation 2:15).
So often we find ourselves avoiding change at all costs when in fact, embracing change is the only way to improve our conditions. If we truly trust God, do our best and live in hopeful confidence, change will not appear as a problem, but as an opportunity. Even changes which are caused by sickness, misfortune or tragedy, will be turned to our best good if we turn to God for our direction and follow God’s will. The best way to ensure that any change is good will be to turn it over to God and apply our spiritual knowledge to the task of finding the blessing in the change. Then, whether the change is desired or dreaded, the result will be to our benefit. Embracing God allows us to welcome change and use it for God’s god purpose. Our Gardens need change in order to flourish, grow and provide joy, comfort and peace.
Let it grow,
