We must cut away from our life the old branches that no longer are a source of growth that we me sprout new beginnings in other areas. We cling to what we know, even if it no longer serves a purpose in fear of striking out in a new, as yet unfamiliar direction.
A new path. We drag our heals in reluctance and keep pounding on a door that is already closed to us because of relationship that is over, an injury that prevents a continuation in a known field, a job market that no longer exists, or a change in a financial situation.
We fail to recognize these circumstances as an opportunity God has given us to fulfill a destiny as yet unknown to us.
We need to stop dwelling on the ending and open our eyes and hearts to the new beginning and see the joy that is a possibility to be gained in a new direction.
We need to embrace it as a new territory we have never explored with enthusiasm and wonder. A change of attitude can make all the difference in the world whether we succeed or claim defeat before we even begin.
We must accept changes and sometimes limitations in order to open the window into tomorrow and all the possibilities awaiting us there.
Until we take time to unwrap the gift we cannot know for sure what it contains. Life is like that, just when we think we have it all figured out we are given new surprises along the way.
It is how we deal with them that makes the difference. We can refuse to move forward, and stagnate or we can welcome it and reap the benefits.
It is impossible to know how something fits until we try it on. This acceptance is called faith. Trust that the Father has a plan for you, because we cannot see it now does not mean it is not there.
You are the explorer in your life and a new world awaits.
