Over this last week I have been thinking about how life can change "in a moment". Either one minute all is well and the next its not or it can change towards the good, achieving a goal, getting the job etc and yet we never really know when this is going to happen.
It was 2 years ago on Tuesday (11th) since my brother passed away, 2 days before he had a car accident. We had woken up on that Friday expecting a normal day and "in a moment" everything had changed, he was in a coma and would never be the same again. I was thinking over this this week and realised how many times it happens in our lives. Change happens everyday and so much of it we can't control, we had no idea we would lose Alex, those people on the Malaysian Airlines flight had no idea they would go missing nor did their families. On the other side, I have received calls this year to do new things, things I never really thought I'd do and weren't expecting so again "in a moment" my life changed, how about you?
Sometimes life can seem so unstable, we don't know what's around the corner and yet we can't live in fear of it but what can we hold onto? The good news is that God never changes, his love is certain and unconditional. For me knowing this is a relief, there is something I can hold on to in the crazy times, the uncertain times and even the exciting times. I am finding that I wake with expectation of change in whatever form and know that I will get through it.
So cherish the times you have with loved ones, do the things that you want to do with your life, understand that change will happen and learn to accept it with a grateful heart and know that when life seems unsure God is sure and willing to hold you hand through it all.
Have a great week!
