Make Room for the New [Illustrations included in this devotional are not visible in this view.

In fact, many times when I have brought these kind of concerns up in prayer, the response from the Lord is, “Son, if you want them or that to change, then you need to change.” The “new” we are wanting around has to first take root inside of us. So here’s a question we need to ask when wanting people and things to change – “Am I making room for the new?” The excitement of new is thrilling, but we need to set a standard inside of ourselves when it comes to new.  “New” is not repackaging what you already have, it's pioneering something fresh in your life! When you begin to desire "NEW," everything changes – priorities, standards, and focuses. A hunger for "NEW" will give you an appetite for unfamiliar territory and will make the impossible look attractive. The hunger for new can be a gift if you are willing to change. Starting today, give yourself permission to make room for the new!
