Change

I'm sitting on my bed with my cute, I mean, handy computer surrounded by books, and boxes. I started contemplating all the changes in my life right now.

Shannon's getting married (remind me to look at that ring again, Shan;-), I'm going away for a month, and my family's moving houses while I'm gone.

How's that for someone who does NOT like change.

You know, I'm kind of afraid that the Lord might be preparing me for something. I mean, this not liking change thing is not new. I've never liked change, but I grew up in a military family that moved every two years.

God certainly taught me about change then. And how He's always with me.

Then I thought (which was probably my first mistake) that we were finally settled in our nice house. Then Shannon got engaged. Wow! Talk about a big change!

But God's teaching me about change through that. He's the One I need to lean on.

On top of that, we're moving house....exactly what I'd come to think I was safe from (except for moving out when/if I get married).

Again, God's teaching me about how to deal with change through this. No matter how many changes are going on around me, He will never change.

I'm really getting concerned with how well I need to know this lesson about change......

  1. Hi Tiffany,

    I have been lurking on your blog for quite some time but have never commented (although occasionally I leave a comment on Shannon's blog.) If you don't mind my asking, to where are y'all moving? I don't know you, but we're united in Christ (and in name :-) and I'll be praying for you as the Lord takes you to new places.

    In Him,
    Tiffany

    PS Out of curiosity, what is your middle name? As you can see, I'm Tiffany Hope. :)

  2. I don't mind answering at all, but I won't put the actual place here. We're just moving about 20 minutes away. Closer to church, the school where Dad and I teach, and friends.

    Thank you so much for the prayers.

    My middle name is Anne (spelled with an "e" you see;-)

    Thank you for commenting. It's nice to "meet" you!
