change

2 days ago i went to my best friend's wedding. it was so beautiful. it was so much fun and sweet as could be. congratulations ashley and jared mills! after they get back from their honeymoon they're moving super far away to kansas city, missouri. although i am sad that i won't get to see her for quite a while, God has huge plans for them there. it got me thinking about change. everyone hates change. i like change most times but only when i want to change. God has other plans. he wants us to change when it is good for him and most often bad for us. we will try to resist but we have to have faith and know that God is who he says he is and that he will not fail us. 2 corinthians 3:18 says "so all of us that have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. and the Lord--who is the spirit--makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image." we must change to be more and more like Christ. we live in a sinful world and what the world tells us we should do are not what the Lord tells us. so we must change. change our hearts, change our minds, change our actions. change. we can't be just living in the world. we must always be changing to be more like him and show him to the world that so desperately needs him and his love. embrace the change.
