Be Willing To Change, For God Will Give You Wings

"If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies." Unknown

 Maybe today, you are afraid of change. You have something in your life that has been the same for a very long time, and now that it is on the horizon of turning into something totally different, it makes you nervous, anxious, and scared. But let me tell you today that, yes, I know change can be difficult and even a bit scary, but God is only going to change something so that He can make it even more beautiful.
 Now see, it is quite difficult when the thing that is changing is something that we loved. We loved how it was working for us, we loved doing this, or being here, it just seemed so perfect. But see, our vision of our lives is so different from that of God's. We see the situation that we are in. We see how happy we are and were, but God sees how happy we can be. We only want to stay on this level because it is comfortable, and we have gotten everything to the point where it seems perfect, but God sees more than that. He sees your future which holds so much more promise for you. He sees a life that is so much better, He sees a perfect life, much more than you are living now, in front of you, ready for you to walk into, that is, if you would stop resisting the change that God is trying to bring and step into it, willing and trusting.
 Think about it this way, when a caterpillar lives, don't you think that it is happy just where it is? Crawling around, having everything that it could really need right around it. Everything is simple and perfect for this little caterpillar. But then, there is change, and even though that caterpillar may have been comfortable, even though it may have been happy, and even though it may have loved how things were, he walks into it, completely willing and trusting; and what happens? That change results in that once small, crawling caterpillar transforming into a beautiful, flying butterfly.
 So today, just trust that whatever it is that God is wanting to change in your life, He is going to make it much more beautiful than you could ever even imagine. So just walk into to it, be willing, trust God, and He will give you wings.
