You CAN Change

Change is possible.

You don’t have to be stuck and you don’t have to stay stuck.

It doesn’t always have to be the way it is now.

You CAN change.

I remember going through a particularly dark and moody phase…

At the time, I just thought “this is me—this is who I am, and there’s nothing I can do about it.”

I even attempted to justify where I was at. I said things like, “Jesus was depressed too, you know.”

It’s funny how that works. When change feels impossible, we start justifying.

Unfortunately, excuses don’t bring freedom. They simply reinforce the belief, “I can’t change.”

But change is possible!

I’m living proof.

I’m a new person today. I have peace and joy.

I’m smiling, laughing, and enjoying life. Fo’ reals, I’m having a good time.

The book of Ephesians confirms what I’m saying—that change is possible…

“Take on an entirely new way of life—a God-fashioned life, a life renewed from the inside and working itself into your conduct as God accurately reproduces his character in you.” (Ephesians 4.23, 24 MSG)

The cool thing is, you’re not on your own when it comes to change. God is working in you!

God is giving you both the power and the desire to change. (Philippians 2.13)

This is good news—with God’s help, change is possible.

You CAN change.
