Architecture and fashion are subject to change. Occasionally
a person like Frank Lloyd Wright comes along and ushers in a revolution in
architecture that others will follow and imitate. Jesus was an architect of
change, bringing transformation that never ends within the heart, mind and soul
of committed Christians.
I
recently talked with someone involved in a relationship perceived as confining,
like an emotional prison. Feelings of powerlessness, fear and depression in
addition to anxiety made the future look bleak and hopeless. Sharing the truth
of the situation and setting goals for change created an attitude of hopefulness
and assurance.
Commitment
to change is essential but must center around God’s specific purpose, which becomes
apparent as his guidance and direction are clearly understood. Jesus told his
disciples in John 15:16, “You did not choose me, but I chose you.” Realizing
Jesus chose you is a confidence builder that change is forthcoming and good.
