We can try, we can prepare, but ultimately all we can do is accept the gift of the change He makes in us. Like the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, or confirmation, it is a gift, but one we can pray for, and be prepared to accept --- no matter how much it hurts. Change always hurts, it has challenges, it is not the way things were before, when we got so comfortable with our life.<br />But it will be a change that gives us life everlasting.Do Not Be Anxioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607616214486933423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7332117297336636395.post-87027365248122228742010-12-07T22:43:34.716-05:002010-12-07T22:43:34.716-05:00I like how you have started to read the Bible from...I like how you have started to read the Bible from the start. I tried that years ago. I started with the Old Testiment. Some people I know say it is best to start with the New Testiment, which I think I might try if I ever read it from start until end. I've been reading the daily Catholic scripture readings, and doing that means within a year I will have read most of the Bible! <br /><br />Life changing moments are super. I think you're right about how change is something you need to take on for yourself. Thanks for the great reminder! <br />-Cat, fellow BloggerCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951630436300764547noreply@blogger.com
