The Grace to Change
Playback speed
Change is necessary for growth, and if we’ve been born again, our own lives should demonstrate transformation. Others should be able to look at us and notice some type of difference or alternate route taken as a result of our Christian walk. Yielding to the Holy Spirit’s prompting and beginning to think in line with Him begins changing our lives radically. Letting God direct and guide us as we change is similar to the metamorphosis a caterpillar undergoes in becoming a butterfly.

How the Holy Spirit Helps Us Change
Change can be interpreted on more than one level; it can be seen as undergoing a transition, experiencing a transformation, or becoming something different. We can experience God’s best through the process of change, similar to how a caterpillar changes into a butterfly. Change isn’t always easy but, looking back over the process after we go through it, we realize how much better our lives are and how much stronger we are than before the process began.
Crazy Expectations
We all want to do the right thing. This is a normal part of being human; however, sometimes what others expect of us, and even what we expect of ourselves, can cause undue pressure and stress in our lives. If we’re not careful, we can get caught up in ceaseless religious striving and efforts to measure up to others’ expectations.
