Change Agents

Why is change so hard and so painful?? My biggest enemy is myself and the comfort of my sin. It is so easy to look back and see who I was compared to who I am; forgetting that it took a lot of change (and pain) to get here! I know that God doesn't want me to stay where I am, but I put up a pretty good fight sometimes. My child is showing me what a stubborn heart I have. He is so quick to say "I sorry" and give me a hug when disciplined. I compare that to the last time I said "I'm sorry" to God and to my husband and I am humbled. I don't want Matthew to learn a different way of responding because of my example. My heart has to soften and change.
