Moldy Bread Tastes Bad

Stacy Hord-Hulm is a friend who lives in Missouri and works at a college and writes stuff like what you’re about to enjoy and has graciously given me permission to share with you —

Have you ever held on to a loaf of bread for weeks, only to find out that when you finally want to make a sandwich, the bread is moldy?

Sometimes we hold to on attitudes and circumstances in our lives for WAY too long. We idealize the past; “I had more fun when I was single” “Our workplace was better when we had a different manager,” “Church was more enjoyable when they played different music.”

You know how it is.

What is it in your life right now that has changed and you wish for the way it used to be?

Well, let me tell you something: that old way was getting stale and while you weren’t even realizing it, mold was starting to form.

You had stopped growing.

There was no more freshness to you.

So God was done with that era in your life and moved you to this new situation to grow you and give you fresh insight!

If God says that time is over, then that time is OVER and it’s time to take hold of the NEW bread God has for you!

There are so many new flavors that you haven’t even tasted yet! Trust him, throw out that old moldy attitude and be open to the new things God has in store for you!

–— Amen, Stacy, and thank you!
