Why is it that change can be so scary? I say that I'm spontaneous (I like to be when I have time). I also like to think that I welcome change, yet to be honest, I don't always. Yet, as many changes are happening all around me, I have to admit that I am not always comfortable with them.

Sometimes, many times, change brings:
  • fear of the unknown
  • lack of knowledge
  • curiousity
  • hope and anxiety
  • questions of the outcome
  • lack of understanding/reasoning

It can feel like the following have left:

  • comfort
  • norm
  • peace

Yet, the changes eventually become the norm. It can be scary, and yet it's worth it to go through. Lord, help us all welcome change in our lives and love the exciting opportunities and experiences that You give to us. Help us understand when those around us are finding change difficult. Help us help them, and may You help them as well. Thank You my sweet Lord.

The only thing worse than change (IMHO) is doing something for the first time.

Of course, change often involves a lot of that as well.
