The way that you are now is not the way that you will stay.
Shaye Elliott
Ted Miller said almost the same thing in a sermon. “Things will happen in your life that will change you. You’ll never be the same again.”

I don’t know why this truth startled me so. I could easily see the “things will happen” part. That’s for sure. There have been several of those unforeseeable things that happened. This part is undeniable. But I had to adjust to … still am adjusting to, is that I’ll never be the same person that I was before these things happened. Life is not going to go back.
What Shea said today, though, sounds so much better. Truth is, I want to change for the better as a result of things that happen.
