Change.

"When life seems unpredictable and uncertain...

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
-Hebrews 13:8

We take our first breath of terrestrial air in total shock. Christ alone is unchanged and will remain unchanged for all of eternity. We, on the other hand, are in constant, hair raising, stomach-turning flux. As the old saying goes, nothing stays the same but change. The truth is, God uses change to change us. He doesn't use it to destroy us or to distract us but to coax us to the next level of character, experience, compassion, and destiny." - The Promise of Security by Beth Moore

I have been experiencing a lot of change lately, and it is not easy. Each thing that is changing in my life makes me feel uncomfortable. I feel at risk. What I know to be true is that what is changing in my life is actually bringing me to safer places. Safety is found in the name of the Lord and the Lord is everything that is true.

"The name of the LORD is a strong tower;
the righteous man runs into it and is safe." -Proverbs 18:10

Much of the change in my life that is happening is inward change. It is me choosing to walk out of darkness into light, out of the house of rebellion into the house of the Lord, out of sin into truth. It is time for Jamie Boone to grow up a bit more. And that calls for change. I know in my mind that this is good. Even though it is unknown, feels scary, and brings up many emotions, it is good. I believe these changes are coming from my Father God. And that is why I surrender to Him. And I have found that there is a feeling of great freedom in surrender, knowing that God is good and He knows what He is doing.
I so know that this is what He is calling me to.
Truth is: it's not easy, but it's good.
