Hi, my friends, welcome to day 11 embracing change

2
00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:12.200
Well, I don't know about you, but stepping outside your comfort zone taking action going after your dream requires

3
00:00:13.040 --> 00:00:15.040
embracing change for sure

4
00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:20.600
Hebrews 13 8 says Jesus is the same yesterday today and forever

5
00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:27.720
And what I love about this is even though our life changes more often than not God never

6
00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:31.960
Changes Jesus never changes like he is always with us always

7
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.920
Faithful always there to provide always there to guide us

8
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:42.560
We talked yesterday about the power of prayer like he is for us and with us and we can trust in his confidence

9
00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:48.520
so even though our world often changes and life can just seem like

10
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:55.080
Sometimes we get blindsided by change or as we're stepping out again of our comfort zone and taking action

11
00:00:55.160 --> 00:01:00.040
It can feel daunting to go, you know after things that are stretching us

12
00:01:00.400 --> 00:01:05.600
But even in this we can find comfort in the unchanging nature of Christ

13
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:14.240
embracing change also is what leads us to our greatest growth and new opportunities, you know, you think of a

14
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:22.680
caterpillar that without going through the cocoon and the metamorphosis process and kind of the dismantling of its current body and

15
00:01:23.080 --> 00:01:30.080
Becoming something new that it turns into this beautiful butterfly and so too but when we go through change

16
00:01:30.080 --> 00:01:34.600
It's an emerging process like sometimes it's a little painful and are

17
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:40.840
Uncomfortable and yet as we come out the other side like we can be a new creation in Christ

18
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:42.840
Jesus stepping into our dreams

19
00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:49.520
So today reflect on the changes that you might need to make is that getting up earlier?

20
00:01:49.520 --> 00:01:53.440
Is it being more bold, you know to talking to people?

21
00:01:53.440 --> 00:01:57.840
Is it taking the time out to write or to create your dream?

22
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:04.920
Is it being intentional with your health? Like what do you need to do to create the change and sometimes again?

23
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:12.080
we resist change and so we have to be like to push through maybe the resistance that we're feeling and

24
00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:15.240
Over time we start to get more used to it

25
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:19.760
So it could be again your mindset a routine environment

26
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:26.760
relationships finances like ask God what areas that you need to change in your life and then be

27
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:35.440
Faithful to move forward like don't just journal the changes but actually take action and then trust God that he's with

28
00:02:35.440 --> 00:02:38.640
you in the transition that he's guiding you and

29
00:02:39.320 --> 00:02:42.080
Leading you towards the perfect plans that he has for your life

30
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:47.480
So let's ask today our activation questions first, how do you feel about change?

31
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:53.720
Well, there's part of me who grew up in the military household and I moved a ton growing up

32
00:02:53.720 --> 00:02:59.640
And so on one hand, I'm a big proponent of change. Like I'm like, yeah, let's do this. Let's move

33
00:02:59.640 --> 00:03:06.040
Let's start something new. But on the other hand like I can get overwhelmed sometimes and resist

34
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:14.280
Taking making action or taking change and like really like like taking control of some areas of my life because I get really

35
00:03:14.720 --> 00:03:20.640
Comfortable in the familiar and so I think we all kind of have that tension. So ask God to identify

36
00:03:21.880 --> 00:03:27.480
One change to him that you need to embrace in your life to move closer towards your dream

37
00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:32.720
Like really take time with God and the Holy Spirit and don't feel overwhelmed

38
00:03:32.920 --> 00:03:37.720
Like again, you can't change everything at once but like what's 1% of

39
00:03:38.160 --> 00:03:42.720
Change that you could do today and every day or every week add something new

40
00:03:43.720 --> 00:03:46.400
So, let me pray for you my friends. So God

41
00:03:46.920 --> 00:03:48.040
Just thank you

42
00:03:48.040 --> 00:03:51.680
Thank you for the fact that you are faithful that you never change

43
00:03:51.880 --> 00:03:58.080
That you are always here for us that you are always there to provide wisdom and guidance and God

44
00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:04.600
I just pray for my friend this day that you would help them to embrace change embrace the discomfort or the

45
00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:10.560
Unfamiliar or the fear that might be associated with taking charge and change in their life

46
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:13.720
But God all may they experience great growth

47
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:17.120
mentally emotionally spiritually physically

48
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:25.600
Production wise, you know with their what they're producing for their dream God and may you move them closer to the desires of their heart?

49
00:04:25.640 --> 00:04:32.320
And may they be in line with your will in Jesus name. Amen. Okay, my friends. See you again tomorrow

50
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:34.600
Hope you have a great day
