Impala

As Janice McLaughlin tells us, the Impala outnumbers all the other African antelope.  Why?  The Impala is very open to change.  It can change its diet depending on the season of the year, and go without water for long periods in drought.  What about us?  Do you find it difficult to accept change? Are you hardwired to things being routine and predictable?  Are you intolerant of others who are not like you?  You may be missing out on the God presence or some spiritual encounter.  God seems to appear and act in unwanted and unplanned changes, but we miss them because we want our secure routines.  Did not Jesus approach some guys who were into their fishing business and say, “Come follow me.”  Christianity started out unplanned, but has become very much into routines as it became institutionalized.  Maybe try something a little different or unique for you today?
