Change = Growth

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
a time to be born and a time to die, 
a time to plant and a time to uproot, 
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a times to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
a time to serach and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend, 
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Change. There sure is a lot changing all around us. The only things that seems constant is that everything is changing!

Here is the reason why change is so essential to life and particularly to the Christian life.

Think of the best version of who God wants you to be. Really. Take the time to think about the best version of you, that God wants you to be.

Got it?

Is that who you are today? If you said yes, let me know. I would love to meet that person!

God wants us to become that person. Every day, a little closer to the best version of who God wants us to be. But none of us are there yet. Some of us are closer. Some of us are just starting. But none of us are there.

Do you know what that means? God expects you to change. Resisting change is resisting growth, resisting maturity, resisting God.

God is up to something great! There is a season of renewal and growth ahead of the Little Church.

Ready to grow? Be open to the changes God is calling you to.
