"Unavoidable Change"


Psalm 71:18 "Now also when I am old and gray headed, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come."

Is this your prayer this morning? As a Christian, is it your desire that everyone around you would know God's goodness, power, and strength? Is it your desire to serve the Lord with the years you have remaining in this life? I know we automatically assume that we will always be doing the same thing we are doing today 20 years from now. We think that we will have the same belief system and that we won't ever change.

The fact of the matter is, is that all people change. Some for the better, some for the worse. Over time we gain knowledge and wisdom that we didn't have in our younger years. There are some things in life that we don't want to change. When it comes to those things we have to be like David and purpose in our heart that we don't want those things to change. If we don't make a conscience decision to remain the same, we more than likely will not.

Change is unavoidable. It's going to happen. Determine to change the things that need to be changed, and the things that you want to remain the same purpose in your heart to get on your knees before God and ask Him for His help. He'll do it for you.
