A cup of the same please

The big lesson of the week or of life in general... change. It's that nagging and yet sometimes wonderful inevitability of avenues we are allowed to experience. Currently this game of change seems to be taughting me. There are so many things I'd like to do right now but because of the path of change ahh the choices i've made I'm putting those things on hold. Funny isn't how we embrace change that is seemingly good but as it shapes itself into these difficult narls in our once sturdy tree we then shy away from change...curse and hope for more of the same. Sadly folks each and everyday is the begining of change as we breathe. The moment your eyes open there are changing we are not privvy to changing that are affecting us even if not within that day. Imagine this with me : 14 years ago I was wanting change in my life in the form of a relocation to this fabluous state that i know reside in. It took another 7 years for that change to actually happen but it did. God is good. God is gracious and God knew about the many paths I would take before the change I hoped for prayed for would happen. Now there's always that nagging little feeling of what if's with change. What if the change isn't right for me... welll I've come to realize the only change that is bad is one where you don't put your trust in God... Every decision you make ultimately should be brought up to God and thus your road can be aligned with his.
Ah easier said that done...yes I daily falter in this but I'm learning too deal better with the daily changes whether they be big or small, trivial or life-impacting... God is sovereign over all change... so if I have this perspective how could I not thing that it is good.
