00:00:02.564 --> 00:00:07.413
Welcome to Wisdom for the Day, your daily source for spiritual refreshment and guidance.

00:00:07.413 --> 00:00:08.734
I'm Rick.

00:00:08.734 --> 00:00:13.651
Join me as I dive into God's Word to find clarity and strength for life's challenges.

00:00:13.651 --> 00:00:19.466
Let me help you embrace each day with faith and wisdom, ready to feel inspired.

00:00:19.466 --> 00:00:21.065
Let's get started.

00:00:21.065 --> 00:00:27.487
Today is Day 66, transformation Change.

00:00:27.487 --> 00:00:38.972
From 2 Corinthians 3.18, from the New Living Translation, we are being transformed into His likeness with ever-increasing glory.

00:00:41.002 --> 00:00:44.250
Human beings have long been resistant to change.

00:00:44.250 --> 00:00:47.167
Most people don't like change.

00:00:47.167 --> 00:00:48.965
I don't like change.

00:00:48.965 --> 00:00:57.651
When Sir Francis Drake brought the potato back from Peru to Scotland, people refused to grow it because it wasn't mentioned in the Bible.

00:00:57.651 --> 00:01:10.212
In the same way, when street lamps were introduced in Boston, local ministers preached against them, claiming if God had intended this, he would have made the sun brighter and the moon more brilliant.

00:01:10.212 --> 00:01:21.167
Even the use of painkillers faced opposition from clergy who believed that God created bodies perfectly and chemicals shouldn't interfere.

00:01:21.206 --> 00:01:26.614
Change is inevitable and while some changes may be bad, many are good.

00:01:26.614 --> 00:01:33.013
Not all change leads to progress, but without change, progress is impossible.

00:01:33.013 --> 00:01:41.209
The discomfort of change often comes from having to let go of what is familiar, from surrendering things that we once valued.

00:01:41.209 --> 00:01:53.534
We cling to man-made rules and routines, thinking they provide stability, but God calls us to be guided by something much more powerful His Holy Spirit.

00:01:53.534 --> 00:02:02.891
The Spirit within us has the ability to change us, transforming us from one degree of glory to the next.

00:02:02.891 --> 00:02:05.075
2 Corinthians 3.18.

00:02:06.162 --> 00:02:11.354
Embracing change in God's hand leads to growth, renewal and transformation.

00:02:11.354 --> 00:02:15.150
Are you open to the wind of the Holy Spirit?

00:02:15.150 --> 00:02:18.549
Where is God's Spirit directing you?

00:02:18.549 --> 00:02:21.868
What is he asking you to change in your life?

00:02:21.868 --> 00:02:30.971
It's only when we allow ourselves to change by God's power that we can become agents of change in the world around us.

00:02:30.971 --> 00:02:38.508
God uses our transformation to bring his light and love to a world that desperately needs it.

00:02:38.508 --> 00:02:42.122
Pray with me, god our Father.

00:02:42.122 --> 00:02:44.468
Pray with me, god, our Father.

00:02:44.468 --> 00:02:49.217
We frequently resist change because we want to be comfortable.

00:02:49.217 --> 00:02:55.830
Give us the mind of Christ so that we can choose Spirit-inspired change, amen.

00:02:55.830 --> 00:03:03.026
Well, that's all for today, but I'll be back tomorrow with more of God's Word.
