Changes
"WHAT CHANGED?" asked my friend last night. I simply responded, "I did." I would be hard-pressed to fully explain the extent to which I have been thinking about changes in people lately. As I strolled through the bookstore, I passed a section of books explaining strategies to help you alter a person's decisions or feelings. I chuckled to myself knowing that it is more difficult to move a person than it is to move a mountain. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it is all a waste. There is a way to change people indeed, but that is only through a personal change. Christ was incarnated and walked the Earth so that we might learn from His example. We learned, and our free will was not threatened. I believe change is inevitable as we grow older and wiser, but it something that will reflect upon others so change wisely.

Yikes. This post makes me think about how I have changed as I have gotten a bit older. I am not so sure I like a lot what has changed, but I hope in God who has the power to set me in a better direction.
