Change.....Why is something so natural so hard to accept?
All of God's creation is constantly evolving, changing, yet nothing seems to resist change quite so much as the human being. Do you ever see the seasons resisting change?.(well maybe..you may think they do when we have extra long winters or the summer is long and hot.) But, for the most part, the seasons come and they go...year after year, changing and recreating. The same with nature and all wildlife. They live day to day, going through their cycles, accepting and moving on.
Why is it that humans seem to resist change? Sometimes, I think, it may be one of the hardest things for us to deal with. If we perceive things to be going well, we don't want them to change, but if we think they are not so good, we look very hard for ways to change them.
Maybe, the secret to change is to just allow it to happen. In the first place, you cannot really control how things go. If you try to resist or force things, you only cause dissatisfaction within yourself. What you can do, is accept the fact that change is going to happen; it is......Then, you can work on your attitude toward it, which is something you have the choice to change.
Isn't God wonderful? He gives us just enough choice and free-will to work on things that we are able to handle. God will never give us more than we can deal with. Keep your attitude positive, because when you are positive everything will seem and become a whole lot different. Keeping your attitude positive will make the whole difference in your life.
"Positive attitude equals joy, peace, happiness, love, and all good things." Really!
All of this God intends for us to have. so, don't resist change; allow it to freely recreate wonderful things in your life. If you find it hard to embrace change in any given moment, then choose to accept it and move on from there.
Ecclesiastes has wonderful words of wisdom in these verses:
Chapter 3: 1-8, 11, 12
"There is an appointed time for everything under the heavens. A time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot the plant; a time to kill and a time to heal; a time to tear down and a time to build; a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance; a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them; a time to embrace and a time to be far from embraces; a time to seek and a time to lose; a time to keep and a time to cast away; a time to rend and a time to sew; a time to love and a time to hate; a time to be silent and a time to speak; a time of war and a time of peace;" God has made everything appropriate to its time" "There is nothing better than to be glad and do well in life."
