A relative shared some family pictures their mother had taken throughout our lifetime. Her hobby was taking and keeping pictures of every time family got together or visited her. I have been shown pictures of me since I was a baby sitting in my aunts lap, as a teenager with hair down my back and over my eyes, all the way to an adult. I had someone tell me I had not changed much. I guess they were referring to me being overweight all my life. LOL! The fact is we have changed and changed greatly. I am now 6ft tall instead of being a little child. I am now in my 60’s instead of a few months or years old. I have now experienced much of life, instead of not being aware of what life really was all about. Change happens! It is not always a bad thing either. Changes that God has made in my life since I have been walking with him have been PRICELESS! Every child of God needs to take time and see the changes God has made in their life. It can be a beautiful thing to examine. (Isaiah 43:18-19 Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. 19. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.) God says He is doing a new thing. As you move into the future He has for you, you will encounter all kinds of new opportunities, and challenges. The days ahead will be full of new experiences, things you have never faced or attempted before. You may not know how to do them, but you will learn. Everything you are doing today was new to you at one time, and now it has become routine for you as you do it. Continuing to face new challenges and develop new abilities is extremely important to your growth and maturity. Can you image the photo album God has for your life? Pastor Don
