The goodness of change...

When things begin to change, there is nothing more to do except adjust with the climate. No matter what is going on in your life, there will be changes, modifications, upgrades, downgrades, transitions, evolution and periods of assessment. The whole idea is to keep your head through the processes of life itself. Somethings can be overwhelming, yet nothing can overtake you. Things can only overtake you when you let it. Its unfortunate sometimes how you try your best to be better only to receive the same results. The truth is that is a form of insanity. When you find yourself in those elements, its time to change. Life is wrapped up in seasons. We will all experience them; winter, spring, summer and fall. Spiritually and emotionally we will find ourselves there. Many people do not have the wearwithall to handle such changes, yet God has equipped each of us to do so. It takes courage to face each season. There will be dry seasons, seasons of death and life. Its a fact. You really find out a lot about yourself when you are under pressure. How do you adjust? Pressure has been known to take out people. Yet, those of us who are able to survive, can look back and encourage those who have been there. Life hits harder than any gun or bat. It is up to us to get back up and keep going. Ultimately, the obtaining of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding lies there. It has been said that experience is the best teacher. I concur. One can never get to wrapped up in where they are, because soon or later the climate will change. When those changes in the climate occur it is based upon the attitudes of those in the climate that will determine their ability to move from that climate or season to the next one. I like to use the analogy of the leather coat. A leather coat looks good and is nice to wear when its cold, but its not beneficial in the heat. Living in Houston, the heat can be oppresive but when the temperature dips into the high 50s you can see people wearing them as if they were in Chicago or something. When the temperature changes, the garments we wear change. Sometimes we can be stubborn and resist change. However, God is not impressed by our resistance. No matter how much you hate winter, winter is going to come, so get over it and dress accordingly
