Change -funny how we want it but cannot stand it

My days for so long have been about change. The most ironic thing would be to have days the same for an extended period. That would be a change for me!

Sometimes I wonder why God has my life so fluid. Why he does not allow me the routine of life so I can get comfortable and assured and better serve him. Why do I always feel like I am in opening night of a new play that has never been done before?

The truth of the matter is God knows me best and knows I have the attention span of an ant. That is probably why. As much as I moan, I would probably moan more if he kept me standing still. I thrive on his lessons, his insignts and his wisdom. I just wish they were sometimes easier to learn and came in prettier packages.

I have noticed frequently people ask for change and then stall when they start to get it. I guess maybe they are afraid they will lose the control they feel they have. Or is it they are afraid they personally will have to change. We all know it is the outside world that needs to change, not us inside, right? right. So when change comes, we really don't want to have to change at all-we want the world to change -always.

The greatest change I want right now is to change my heart so I will be more willing to change!
