Change.
It's one word that we are all afraid of. A word that causes us to become anxious and stressed out about the future. New things and changes are inevitable, but as things change and we change, there are many things to remember as we begin to start a new season.
Change is only temporary. Everything that changes will soon become second nature and will be apart of your life. The transition from high school to college is a very big change. But soon you will get used to this change. Soon enough, you will probably begin to appreciate this change and this new season of life.
The beginning is only the beginning. Change occurs frequently and sometimes, unexpectedly. If your best friend has to move away, or you have to move away, automatically you will have time to prepare. Death in the family or sudden changes are much less planned for, but as change occurs, we have to be ready for whatever is going to be thrown at us.
Deuteronomy 31:6
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
Do not be anxious about change! The Lord will be you with you every step. So do not be afraid! Change WILL happen and we just have to be prepared for the changing seasons. Just as the seasons change, our lives will change as well.
