I am a conundrum!
I love change, live for it really. Yet, I adore the safety and security of what I already know.
There is an energy that comes from making a change in ones life. It makes the heart beat, widens our eyes and keeps us on our toes.
Yet, change can also create palpitations, fear and anxiety. It can make one yearn for monotony.
When I read verses such as, Isaiah 43:19:
“I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
I think to myself, but my current situation is not a wilderness or desert. I like what I know, and feel protected by the predictability around me.
But then there is Hebrews 11:8:
“By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.”
He just went, without a clue as to his final destination …
Nothing written about fear or yearning for safety and security.
He just obeyed.
He just stepped forward.
