Things just arent the way they used to be…
I’m sure you have heard the phrase many times ‘Things just aren’t the way they used to be…’, these words have been spoken by many voices not limited by age, we spent the weekend looking through many childhood photos, some rather embarrassing photos, but the less said about those the better, but people were happy, content and satisfied, the cry was not always for more, people had flowery carpet, walls were dressed with fruit bowl wallpaper and people wore clothes that looked biblical, and hair styles……! everything looked old age but life was good, people were authentic and happy.
Change can be difficult, in the past we can look back and review the paths taken and think that was a good choice, or that was a big mistake, but looking ahead can be uncertain, create feelings of nervousness, and insecurity, famous preachers will tell us to cling to Christ Jesus and all will be rosy, and while the theory of that may be true, the reality is not always as simple.
In life we will face decisions every day, but we need to make careful decisions, not quick fixes, little decisions added together made incorrectly will create a massive mess, that could knock you completely off course.
We have to remember we have to surround ourselves with people who care, support and love us, Family is a key, but not everyone can relate to good family relations, Church family is another key and i know some again have not good relations or possibly rejection issues in that area, but everyone is capable of making friends, good lifelong friends, low maintenance friendships that are strong and help create a safe environment to bare you deepest struggles and receive the encouragement and support without feeling judged, that’s the measuring stick for a true friendship and if we surround ourselves with these people we can face the future with our heads held high, focused on God knowing we are not alone!
Things may not be the way they used to be, but lets look forward and step into Gods plans for our lives, knowing that the best for us is always ahead of us, (heaven after all is the homeland of every believer!)
