Transitions Happen

Change. Transitions. I don't know that I've ever dealt with them well. More often than not, I've reluctantly dragged my feet, kicking and screaming. I'm not good at it. The familiar is too ... well, familiar. Safe. Comfortable. Known. Secure. Certain. And based on many conversations with young and old alike, I know I'm not the only one who balks at adjusting to something different.

In a recent newsletter, Gary Collins addressed Hudson's 4 seasons of transition -

1. Go For It

2. Doldrums

3. Cocooning

4. Getting Ready

Read on to discover what transitions are really all about. There can be some really positive, life changing aspects. And discover how to manage these uncertain seasons well ... and maybe even embrace the serendipity of what's ahead.

And then maybe you won't be so unnerved when the next one comes along. And maybe I won't, either.

One thing I am sure of. God won't be a bit surprised. And He'll be patiently waiting for me to let Him take me by the hand and lead me through the open door.
