CHANGE

CHANGE

(A Haiku Poem)

Throughout life’s journey

Change is inevitable.

How will I respond?

Shall I resist change,

Criticizing the process,

Showing reluctance?

I will examine

Facts offered that call for change.

What does God’s Word say?

The Lord counsels me;

He gives courage to embrace

Transitions I face.

Envision the goal,

Picture the preferred future,

Reflect, dialogue.

Life is filled with change,

Transitions to act upon—

We follow His call.

I meet each challenge;

I need not fear the future…

My God is with me.
