Changes 2/20


(By Dale Johnson)
Our lives are full of changes 
Some we feel we cannot bear 
Those changes for the better 
Are the ones we quickly share.
But there are those that slip in 
Unannounced and uninvited 
That seem to bring the worst for us, 
Hearts full of grief...ignited...
We question why, why did this happen? 
Who caused all this disaster? 
The real question goes much deeper now... 
Who truly is our Master?
Are we the ones who hold all the keys 
To the destiny of our lives? 
Do we possibly know what's best for us 
In the midst of satan's lies?
How are we to handle life 
When changes come our way? 
Whether good or bad, we must know 
That "change" is here to stay.
We can kick and scream against it 
And "sport" a big bad attitude 
Or know our awesome God knows best 
And go to Him with gratitude.
For we don't tend to look at life 
With eternity in mind, 
We look at the very small picture 
Which often makes us blind
To all the good that eventually comes 
For those who trust in Him, 
The One who came to heal our hearts 
And build the ruins back again.
So we must fully put our trust 
In the omniscient God above 
And know that he allows changes 
For our good and from His love.

My Comments: “Yes, our God is in Control, though pressures burden the soul. He allows both blessing and sorrow in His perfect harmony...” I’ve been dealing with change a lot this week. Interesting how these messages come to minister to my present need. Trust in the Lord, with all my heart and lean not unto mine own understanding... (Proverbs 3:5-6) It is surely difficult at times.
