Albert Einstein said, "The greatest power in the universe is man's resistance to change". I would debate that with him ~ merely because he neglected to consider God in his thought process ~ but overall, I think his idea holds water.
There are some things I don’t mind changing….take
SOCKS for instance. Change is good.
The reason I am on this rant is, my sleep pattern
has changed AGAIN.
I was in a pretty good routine. I would go to bed and write my blog and drift
to sleep.
Yes, my blog put me to sleep. Confession is good for the soul.
When I started my blog, my intent was not to create
a sleep aid but – the good Lord works in mysterious ways.
However, this week the unthinkable happened. I actually started falling asleep when my
head hit the pillow. WHAT is that all
about?
So now I have to find a new time to write my
blog.
You would think that I could do it first thing in
the morning, when I am fresh and alert. ‘
But that is when I do my Bible study and practice my
guitar.
Needless to say, I am in a quandary. (first time I have ever used the word “quandary”)
So what is our spiritual take-away from this life
observation?
“What I have done to get to where I am – is NOT what
I need to do to get to where I am going”
And don’t ask me where I got that saying, I have no
idea, but I really like it.
What I did to achieve success (or in some cases “failure”)
is not what I need to do to move forward in my life.
“No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it,
but
I focus on this one thing: Forgetting
the past and
looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to
reach the end of the race and
receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is
calling us.” Philippians 3:13-14
“Don’t copy the behavior and customs
of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way
you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and
pleasing and perfect.” Romans 12:2
