The winds of change blow through our lives, sometimes gently, sometimes like a tropical storm. Yes, we have resting places—time to adjust to another level of living, time to get our balance, time to enjoy the rewards. We have time to catch our breath.
But change is inevitable and desirable.
Sometimes, when the winds of change begin to rustle, we’re not certain the change is for the better. We may call it stress or a temporary condition, certain we’ll be restored to normal. Sometimes, we resist. We tuck our heads down and buck the wind, hoping that things will quickly calm down, get back to the way they were.
But what if we are being prepared for a new normal?
Change will sweep through our lives, as needed, to take us where we’re going. We can trust that our Higher Power has a plan in mind, even when we don’t know what it is. We can trust that the change taking place is good. The winds will take us where we need to go.
Today I’ll let go of my resistance to change and open to the process. I’ll surrender, trust, and accept, even if I don’t yet understand.
