C'mon Confess..We have all been there! Whatever the situation might have been, a new home, new car, new love, new job or a new pet. We are so excited and we see only the good and positive aspects of whatever our object of desire is at the time. We seem to forget that the new home will require cleaning and maintenance, the new car will eventually get a small knick or dent, the new love undoubtedly will have a little habit we don't absolutely love, the new job may come with some complications we didn't want or expect and that new pet...I think we all know the down side to new pets. :-{ They are all Great at first...then real life happens!
The thought I am trying to express is that maybe we need to look a little further down that road before we become giddy with excitement. Go into these changes slowly and with prayer being your guide...(Philippians 4:6 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.) I have recently come to realize that new things or change ISN'T always for the better. Sometimes when we see that thing or that person for a limited time we don't see all that there is to see. What you may think is going to be so great or have a positive impact on your life can actually be a truly negative experience in the long run. So go into these new things with caution..Pray diligently so that you are in God's will when you make the changes. :)
