Secure in Shifting Sand
By Megan Conner Bible Reading:
"For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like Me,
Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things that are not yet done." – Isaiah 46:9-10 (NKJV) Anyone else feel like the only thing certain in this world is the uncertainty of change? Every time you think your feet are firmly planted with expectations and plans solidified; you suddenly find yourself in shifting sand. It can be frustrating and downright exhausting to lose what appeared to be firm footing and, once again, trudge through the unknown. Especially in today's unpredictable and constantly evolving world, we wonder… is there no solid assurance we can cling to? Where is the predictability? Where is the security? I don't know about you, but I long for predictability and security – like, all the time. If I could have it my way, very little would change. It's not that I am completely opposed to the new and the next, progress has brought much good in my own life and in our world. The issue is… change equals the unknown. And there is no guarantee of "safety" in the unknown. Perhaps change and uncertainty are challenging for you as well. Even if you are more naturally adventurous, navigating a shift can still be difficult, especially if it feels like you are walking onward without a roadmap. |
