Today I have been really thinking about the idea of Change. I came up with an acronym for CHANGE. Christ Has A New Guiding Energy. All change is possible through Christ. He is the one who enables us to put off an old habit or sin, and become a new person, every day. He has taken upon him the big guilt and the huge pain for sin, but he has also taken on him the little feelings of dislike for a habit, like popping knuckles or negative speaking. He can take upon him everything we want to be rid of and allow us to move on. I know it is through the atonement of Christ that I can overcome any thing big and small. I know we all can use Christ in our life. I think we have used him in our life, without even realizing it sometimes. He is the reason we are able to come to this life and become better.
I'm thinking about this so much because I have been looking back on my mission and realizing how much I have changed already, and how much I am shocked with it. I has been a gradual process, although the incline is pretty steep on a mission. But Change Is The Point. The phrase "The only consistency in life is change" has never been more real and obvious in my life. I hope I never go back to who I was before. I hope I keep changing and continually overcome my big and small shortcomings. I know we all can change more and more as we recognize the need for it, and the source from which it is possible. Christ's energy is what fuels that, whether we realize that or not. I know this is true, in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
