Peace in Transitions

Summary: Life is full of transitions. Some are welcomed. Perhaps you’re getting married to the love of your life, or growing your family. But what about those unwelcome transitions born out of turmoil or mourning and grief? Some transitions are thrust upon us when we least expect them. I’ve had friends suddenly lose a child or grandchild in a tragic accident or through a long illness. The transition into life without that loved one is never easy. But God is faithful. He promises in His word that He will “never leave you, nor forsake you.” This life is a life of change and transitions. We’re always adjusting! So where can we find peace? Where can we put our hope? We can put our hope in an unchanging God whose promises are true and whose love is strong! We serve a GOOD and powerful God. When we realize that, we can face even the most tragic, horrific circumstances. I’ve heard it said that the only thing we can expect in this life is the unexpected. With all that uncertainty, our powerful God really is Good News Himself. Share this glorious news with someone today. Can you imagine facing the shifting sands of this life without the solid rock of Jesus Christ? I sure can’t.
