A thought for you day:
Refuse to be stuck with things, ideas, and methodologies that no longer work for you. Clinging onto the old way of doing things gives no room for the new.
Prayer: Lord show me the places that Iโm clinging onto to old dead things. Give me both the wisdom and the courage to let go. Trusting that although the new is unknown, it is far better than holding onto what no longer works.
LaVonne says
Amen. Amen. Amen. Let it be so in my life.
Wanda says
Yes, may it be so in each of our lives.
Alex J. Cavanaugh says
We must adapt and change. And remember that the only thing that doesn’t change is God.
Wanda says
Change is necessary; however, I’ve some areas I tend to be more welcoming of change than others.

Ella says
This needs to be a cheer! I love this~ Thank you Wanda, for sharing ๐
Wanda says
It’s definitely a cheer I’d need to hear from time to time. Hope all is well with you.
Barbie says
As my Pastor says, “God cant’ pour new wine into an old wineskin.” Sometimes you just gotta toss out the old to make room for the new!
Wanda says
So true. Even though my heart and mind knows that, I still find it hard to part with some things at times.
Beverly says
Wanda, I love how you communicate pointed truths so succinctly! Great job! What’s also interesting to me is that I just did a post on a similar topic, except mine was addressing traditions. I also just read a post on MTJ’s blog related to the same topic as well. You think the Lord is trying to get a message across? ๐
Wanda says
Sounds like He is Beverly. When He he is trying to communicate His truth to me I often come across similar messages in many different ways. Thank you for the lovely compliment. I simply try to share what God gives me in the manner in which He speaks to me, which if often simple.
Betty says
Amen!! Wanda! Good Morning! yes I agree we have to follow His voice in what He has for us…direction. God Bless you and thank you for sharing this with us. Agape!
Wanda says
Yes, yes, we have to follow Him. I was just reading in Isaiah 58:11(which just happens to be the foundation of my blogging home) this morning and oh how it ministered to my heart. It reassured me that He indeed will continually guide me.
