Do You Like Change?

​I do not know how many times I have heard someone tell me they hate change, but I do not think this is entirely true. While people enjoy routines and familiarity, they also welcome new things. Among other things, we like new seasons, new restaurants, innovative technology, new friends, and new adventures.

​This is why I tend to think that it is not change that people resist so much as being changed. It is not that we do not like change, we just do not want to change. This is because it is hard. It is uncomfortable, often humbling, and painfully difficult.

But as Christians, we must remember that change is really at the heart of what it means to be a Christian. When we believe the gospel, we accept the truth that we need to change. We know we are broken people whom God is making new through Christ. Not only us as individuals, but we believe that God is going to make all things new. There is also a cosmic change coming.

The fact of the matter is that God not only wants to change your status—from non-Christian to Christian—but also to change you. He wants to make you like his Son Jesus! See you Sunday.
