Navigating Transition: Thriving in Times of Change
In times of transition, navigating change can be daunting and confusing. In this week’s Two for Tuesday broadcast, Chris and Lisa Cree explore the essence of handling transitions in life with the guidance of faith. They delve into understanding how to maintain peace and trust in God amid these uncertain times.
Lisa highlights that transition is a constant in our lives. She acknowledges that this change isn’t something we naturally accept as humans, but it is a fundamental part of God’s plan for us. She emphasizes the importance of having a relationship with God during such times, understanding that while we may not always see the bigger picture, God is always faithful.
Chris connects this conversation to the 4th of July celebrations, noting that even the nation’s history has seen transitions and challenges. He parallels this with our personal transitions, hinting at the ever-present shift in our lives and the need to rely on God’s guidance.
One of the profound insights presented is how God strategically places us where we can have the most impact. Lisa recalls their time in Scotland, expressing gratitude and recognizing that God’s mission for us is significant wherever we are planted. Chris builds on this by reflecting the concept that our largest influence comes within the place where God has put us, even if transitions make the future unknown.
Moreover, they discuss practical ways to handle transitions, like prayer, perception shifts, and trusting God’s timing. For the anxious, Chris reads from Philippians, encouraging reliance on prayer and focusing on positive, God-honoring thoughts to combat fear and anxiety.
As they head into transition themselves with the ministry, they are pausing their Two for Tuesday broadcasts for the summer. Both Chris and Lisa express their faith in the new direction God is leading them, reassuring viewers that such pauses are part of greater plans.
