Adapting in a Changing World

Adapting in a Changing World

Star Date 07.19.25 

Change is no longer coming — it’s already here.
It’s moving fast, and it’s touching every corner of our lives.

Some fear it.
Some resist it.
But I’m learning to embrace it.

Not because change is easy — it’s not.
But because it’s revealing new opportunities I would’ve never seen if I stayed frozen in fear.

For the past several years, I’ve shown up to write.
One story at a time.
Over 5,800 blog entries and counting.

Some of them were about change.
Others about fear.
And over time, I’ve learned that the two are often close companions.

Fear whispers, “You’re not ready.”
Change shouts, “Ready or not, here I come.”

But here’s what I’ve also learned:
Consistency is the bridge between fear and growth.
Showing up daily, even when things feel uncertain, is how you build faith over fear.
It’s how you move forward when the road ahead seems unclear.

God never promised a world that stands still.
He promised His presence in the midst of the movement.
He promised peace that passes understanding — not in the absence of change, but right in the middle of it.

If you’re navigating transition right now — a career shift, a health challenge, a loss, or even a new beginning — know this:
You’re not alone.
You can adapt.
You can find steady ground in the One who never changes.

And maybe, like me, you’ll start to see that every ending carries the seed of a beginning.
That threats can become invitations.
And that consistency — even small, faithful steps — can carry you farther than fear ever could.
