Change is inevitable. Although we don't like it, change is a sure thing. Only dead things don't change. It takes a level of maturity to deal with change in a rapidly changing organization or in a rapidly changing society. Those who lead change or push for change must be prepared to help people through the angst that they will feel in times of change.
The wilderness experience was not much fun for the Israelites. Many of them wanted to go back to Egypt. When you are in the middle, it is hard to see the other side. When we feel like many things are changing at our church or our job or in our family, we need to remind each other that everything is ok. We will come out on the other side. Until the next change......
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

And for any naysayers, the changes at Woods Chapel continue to prove to be prudent and forward change for the better.
The coffee cafe and Worship Center are proof of the pudding. And the new Missions building/Youth facility redo will prove to be the same good kind of change.
In fact, I'm already on to thinking of a time when the Youth Ministry outgrows even what we're expading for now.
Amen?
Amen.
