Change

Guess what?

We all screw up.

It's a fact of life.

The good news is that we can always improve.

We can change.

We fall down.

I've learned the hard way

that we shouldn't focus on the fall.

But, getting back up.

I recently read this quote by

Donald Foster

in Quotes of the Day

"No one who cannot rejoice in the discovery

of his own mistakes deserves to be called a scholar."

At church a while back,

my friend Brenda taught me something profound.

I was lamenting about how

I always have so much self improvement to make.

It gets overwhelming.

She said,

"That shouldn't make you sad or discouraged.

You should be encouraged.

Because the fact that you know

what to improve upon

means that you are

in tune with the voice of God.

He is talking to you.

And you are hearing it."

How wise.

My favorite quote last week:

"The best way to make

permanent change for good

is to make Jesus Christ

your model

and His teachings

your guide for your life." ~ Scott

I wrote it on a piece of construction paper.

And tacked it above my computer.

Funny, LG walked by as I tacked.

He questioned,

"Is that for me?"

"No, it's for me, silly."

We all need to change.

Embrace it.
