I just read an article concerning the eleven things that will never change in life, (no matter how hard you try). It was written by Marian Wright Edelman. Edelman was the first African American woman admitted to The Mississippi Bar in 1964.
Here are the things you can’t change:
- You’re accountable to someone.
- You’re not going to live forever.
- You can’t please everyone.
- You’ll never catch up to the Joneses.
- Holding that grudge is never going to have the effect you’re hoping for.
- Similarly, you can’t control what someone else thinks.
- Yesterday is over. You can’t get it back.
- The world… nope, you can’t change it.
- Where you came from.
- Nothing is ever really private anymore.
- You can’t get back what you’ve lost.
These eleven statements are about as close to the truth as is possible under the present circumstances.
However, the Bible does discuss the most important change that is possible in life.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
Now, there is a change that you can live with for eternity.
Think about it.
