Ever missed the old relationship you had with someone? Maybe something isn't so wrong, or so bad...it's just different? I'm in that weird world right now. Someone I have grown very close to and really love is changing: or at least changing how they relate to me. It's nothing horrible, but it is different and takes some adjusting to!
Two lessons I think I need to really get down:
1) I need to be gracious as others change, as I would want others to be gracious with me!
2) You know what? I think it's OK to miss someone that way. It is a reminder too, that my heavenly Father never, ever changes. He always stays the same, and I can count on His unchanging, unwavering consistency. That's pretty cool!
I really like change...in most things: work, living arrangements, travel, styles, etc. But I LOVE those buddies who "fit like an old shoe"! I'm just having to adjust right now to an old shoe that has some new treads! :-)
