Change

Let's just face it, I'm not at all...ever...really excited about change.  It usually scares me.  Even if what is changing is something that I have wanted (like getting married) or worked towards (like finishing school), I am still prone to be apprehensive about the change.  

I like structure and routines, maybe a little too much.  Wearing the same thing to work every day is almost nice, and my routine of checking the alarm 3 times before allowing myself to go to sleep is the norm.  (Doesn't every one do that, though?)  I plan menus for dinner for the whole week, and like for my clothes to be organized in the closet by long/short sleeve, pants, jeans, dress shirts, etc.  

Life is comfortable when I pretty much know what to expect.  So when something big comes along, or even something small if I'm totally not expecting it, I flip out and put on the brakes.  My immediate reaction is "No, the old way is fine/just as good," or "Do I really have to do this?".   

And you can tell me all day long that change is good, inevitable, causes growth....And although this may be true, for someone like me, even though I may know it is true, I really won't believe you.  And I won't like change just because you tell me it is okay.  But this is what I was reminded of today.

The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace,
Because he trusts in You. 
Trust in the Lord forever,
For in God the Lord, we have an everlasting Rock.  (Isaiah 26:3-4)

God will not change.  He is an everlasting Rock.  That's refreshing for someone who doesn't like change.

The Evolution of Morality?

Upon discussing evolution with a co-worker this question came up:

Evolution is suppose to make organisms more suited for their environment over a period of time. Wouldn't you think that human morality would do the same?
