Romans 8:28 - “We know that all things work for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose” (NAB).
Change is one truth that is completely unavoidable and constant: Everything in life shifts.
"If we look back at our life five or ten years ago, chances are almost everything looks different today. Change is the one constant we all have to face, whether we welcome it or fight against it.
Our text reminds us that God is working behind the scenes. This is a powerful reminder to us that our lives aren’t spinning out of control. People naturally resist change because it brings uncertainty. I acknowledge, and understand well that change can be painful and or uncomfortable at times, but it’s necessary.
This text before us is a reminder that change points towards our spiritual growth and being conformed to the image of Jesus. God using changes for our good does not always means it will be easy, but we have an assurance in God’s word that it is purposeful because it works for our good.
The reality is that we live in a world that thrives on the illusion of stability, not change. But biblically, change isn’t an interruption to God’s plan for our lives; it is often the very instrument God uses to full it.
The question becomes how do we trust an unchanging God in an ever-shifting world? "When life shifts and the winds of transition blow, stop stressing over what is changing and start resting in the God who is using it for your good.
"When the change of a particular season is over, we can testify that truly a change has come over me. I might have stepped into the valley weeping, but I am walking out with a testimony that God works all things together for my good."
When the change of a particular season is over, we can testify that truly a change has come over us. I might have stepped into the valley weeping, but I am walking out with a testimony that God works all things together for my good!
