As the seasons change we see the changing of the weather, the leaves, the driving conditions, and the consistency of flight delays quite easily. However, we fail to see ourselves changing over time. I remember coming to school last year (fall 2008) and thinking to myself, "nothing is going to change, other people go to college and change, but not me." Then within the next month the way I thought had totally changed. I really started looking at why I did things and what needed to be changed in my life. I'm still doing this and, quite honestly, I will be doing it for the rest of my life, I'm sure.
The ways that we change are also drastically different at times, good and bad a like. Good change is seemingly easier to notice while bad changes progress practically unnoticed. How can we be so blind that miss our lives going down hill so radically. Time and time again I move gradually farther and farther away from God and don't think twice about what is happening. It's like sin is flying under the radar to consume me. It's really important to continue to have godly people in my life keeping me accountable and on the right track.
Disclosure: Don't take this as I'm struggling super bad at the moment, I'm actually not, but this is what this picture has been making me think about.
