There are people who go through life “existing” but not really enjoying the blessings God wants them to have. At the end of life, they are faced with a bucket load of regrets wishing they had made better choices. But no one has to live a miserable existence for it’s never too late to start over. You can change the trajectory of your life by surrendering your heart to God and saying no to anything that isn’t bringing you closer to Him! But it’s a choice - God won’t force you. People can become so comfortable in their misery that even though they are unhappy, they resist change. But growth doesn’t happen when you are comfortable or things are easy. You can’t just “want” change, you need to take that first step to make it happen. It’s not enough to have feathers - you must dare to fly. Sometimes you have to make a decision that will hurt your heart - but heal your soul. Ask God to change you into the person that He wants you to be. You don’t have to be afraid because He is with you every step of the way and has promised in Psalm 55:22, “The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.” For real change to take place, you need Jesus in your heart. Remember, it’s not “what” you know, it’s “WHO” you know, because “WHO” you know . . . will change you!
