transitions

Have you ever been through a major transition?

It seems to me that transition can be a time of great chaos in our life. One thing changes, and it makes us feel like everything is up for grabs. What are the words of that old song--"In a world that is constantly changing, how can I be sure?"

Why is it so important to be sure? Being sure can be a sign of confidence or arrogance--niether of which is a very appreciated attitude in the kingdom of God. A contrite (humble) heart is one that comes before God not with sureness, but seeking assurance. We are like children who cannot see the whole picture, nor do we need to. We just reach up for Daddy's (or Mama's) hand and hold tightly, knowing that in the hand of one stronger than us we will be OK.

So when transitions come and chaos is strong. Don't talk down, reach up?
