Change is good....but it hurts!

Change....oh, change. We say we want it, but when it comes....OUCH! Like a kid that gets their first bloody wound kind of ouch. I'm trying not to be sappy and pouty....but this readjustment is really getting to me! It really seems like we all experiencing this "uncomfortableness"...you know, like a pair of jeans that are just a little too tight around the waist. Thankfully, the jeans I am currently wearing fit just right. :)

Here's what I marvel at and am thankful for at this point: Had my circumstances remained the same...I would've remained the same. Nothing would've changed, so in some way I am grateful for all of this pain. And, since all of this has been out of my control, it is evidence that through "taking one on the chin" God is growing and resetting my focus on the real issues.

So, groan with me, if you will. "This too shall pass" they say, and trust me, I want it to pass, but not too fast. I want to come out on the other side....with the wind at my back.
