Are You Positioned for Transition? Part II

First, understanding who we are is critical to making any life transition.  Ephesians 2:8-10 says “We are what God has made us, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before-hand to be our way of life.  This is the scriptural basis for coming to know your purpose in life overall and your purposes within each season of your life.  

One of the most difficult things is accepting that when even things are seemingly bad, they are working some form of good for you.  Experiences and circumstances are a proving ground for each of us.  God already knows what we are made of and have the capability to do.  Life experiences prove to us who we are and refine the great gifts placed within each of us.  Most of us have gone through a major negative life experience leaving us to wonder why me?  Unfortunately, we have been taught to suck it up and keep going.  Very few have been taught how to analyze the circumstance to find and take away the value while letting go of all the unpleasant things that surrounded it.  When asking “why” things are happening, focus on what can be gained by you in all that you face.  What new skill can be learned? What new people can you meet or network with? What new possibilities could it open? What does it reveal about you?

Nothing in life stays the same.  The world will keep moving even if you decide to stop.  Transition is a natural part of life and how easy or hard it is is mostly up to you.  Part of transitioning from one season of life into another is allowing yourself to make the changes necessary to get to your next level.  One of the things that makes change hard is that we are too attached to the way things were.  But if we can accept that life is always changing and progressing we will avoid falling behind.  Transition is easier when we resist the urge to get comfortable where we are and embrace the fact that, inevitably, change is coming to take us into a new and hopefully better season of life.
