“Are You Available For Change?”

Matthew 5:6

Available is defined as suitable or ready for use; of use or service; at hand; free; possible; convenient.

What change needs to take place in your life in order to make God the priority? Are you available for change? Here are a few witnesses of the bible who made theirselves available for change to be used by the Lord for His glory. (1) Abraham - Now the Lord said to Abram, Go forth from your country, And from your relatives, And from your father's house, To the land which I will show you; And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse. And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed. (2) Mary - She had to change her concept of what God could do (miraculously enable her to conceive a child, something that had never been done before). Of course, there would be pain involved if she accepted this change in her state, not just the suffering associated with normal child birth but also the possible loss of her reputation and future husband. Also the fact that she would always be "different"; she would always live with a knowledge and experience that no one else could fully understand. After all, how do you share your feelings after the miraculous conception of a divine being, who could relate? She faced the pain of loneliness (solitude) in her future life because of her special experience. But Mary also saw the blessings attached to this change.

I come by tonight to let you know there are moments in our life when a change is necessary. Let’s make ourselves available to the Lord so change can and will occur. Be bless and I love you!!! JE
