Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, he is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6

 

How you do feel about change? Things change in life, family traditions, jobs, relationships, financial obligations, the list is endless. Change never stops, and for some it can be a huge stumbling block to their success. We get comfortable in where we are, we feel secure, and thus settle for the norm, even if it is painful or causes stress.

 

Today’s verse is a great reminder that God encourages you to be courageous and take a step of faith towards something better. Changing the situation in  your life might be difficult, but God has something better in store for His beloved children. Maintaining the status quo limits the joy in your life, whereas change keeps things fresh and motivates you to discover more of God’s blessings.

 

Do you feel secure in where you are? If so, that’s ok, but just keep an open mind to God’s still quiet voice, calling you to make a change in your life for the better. Don’t worry about the changes that occur, God has already provided the resources to help you change your circumstances and as promised, He will not leave you nor forsake you. Change is inevitable, and if you are truly going to enjoy the benefits of His blessings, you’ll need to take that step of faith and trust Him for a better tomorrow. God bless!
