It’s 2:26 am but I HAD to share this I was laying in bed WIDE AWAKE again head spinning from all the latest happenings and new CHANGES about to take place decided to get up got my prayer journal went to the living room began thanking the Lord for many things prayed for many of you ended my prayer by asking the Lord that as we step out and make BIG CHANGES and I close room 204’s door for Him to open new ones so that a lost world may see ..”GREAT is THY FAITHFULNESS” I told Him I adored Him and said Amen remembering I hadn’t read my online devotion from work today opened it up and guess what?? the title: CHOOSING CHANGE Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9 Recommended Reading Ruth 1:16-17 Do you like change? Some people dread the very word. Change can be as life-altering as a job relocation. Or it can be as simple as someone sitting in “your” seat at church or your grocery store rearranging its aisles. But even creatures of habit must admit that some changes are beneficial and, in fact, life changing. One of the most unassuming characters in Scripture is a heroine who radically changed the course of her life, impacting the Davidic messianic line. Widowed at a young age, Ruth could have returned to the protection of her mother’s family. But Ruth didn’t pick the easy way. Facing enormous obstacles, this brave Gentile woman committed to a big change: “Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God” (Ruth 1:16). By embracing change, Ruth was blessed far beyond what her finite mind could have imagined. Her son would be part of the messianic lineage. Are you resisting the opportunity to make a positive change in your life? Perhaps mentally you’ve drawn boundaries around your comfort zone and you’re crying, “No!” Step up to the challenge of change. The ramifications of God’s kind of change can impact us beyond our wildest dreams. Courage is the strength or choice to begin a change. Determination is the persistence to continue that change.
