You will never be comfortable with change until you become uncomfortable in your mess. 

It's not unusual for most to find themselves laser-focused on personal goals or resolutions for the new year. We are three weeks into 2024, but I still felt the nudge to write a few words on the subject of change and how uncomfortable it can make you feel. Especially in the beginning. It will never not be worth it though. 

The beginning sentence popped into my mind last week, and I couldn't help but think of anyone and everyone who may be trying to function without a purpose or a plan. Those whose lives are stuck in a perpetual state of emptiness. 

Do you know someone who fits this description?

Entertaining the idea of change can honestly be unsettling. Even to the strongest individual. 

But, you'll always need Jesus. And if you've never met Him personally, you've not yet known the difference He can make. So many refuse to accept Him due to the shame they carry concerning their sin. It's never the easiest thing to admit the need for His help, either. 

Maybe you're in a place of hiding away within your mess because you have ultimately decided not to deal with it. Maybe you've never felt good enough. 

Jesus will forever be willing to come up into the worst of your mess; no matter what you've done or where you've been. You will never be worthy of His amazing grace, but He felt that you were worth dying for on that cross. 

 You will always be precious in His sight.

(I will delve more into prideful hearts as we go into February within the next week or so) but I couldn't allow this little late New Years themed thought to fade away into oblivion. 

If you haven't yet trusted in Him for salvation, everything about your life will remain and come to an eventual close as a dead-end situation. The matter of your eternal residence needs to be dealt with right now as tomorrow is never promised. 

If you were to pass away tonight, are you 100% sure that you would be in Heaven? There's only one way to know without a doubt and that is by placing faith in Jesus and accepting Him as your personal Savior. 

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6)
