Change isn’t that much fun. Today was my last day at Johnson Controls. Between Shelburne and Orangeville I’d been there about 1 year and 8 months. There were many times over those many months that I really didn’t want to be there, but now that it’s all over, I will kind of miss the place. It’s funny how I respond to change despite God’s amazing track record. When Shelburne laid off all those people and moved them to the Orangeville plant (me included), I was upset. I was very used to the Shelburne plant, the people, the work, it was all very comfortable. Especially during the first few days in the Orangeville plant, I hated it! I hated the work, the people bothered me and I missed Shelburne. But none of it was that bad, it was just my negative feelings towards change. Soon enough I got used to the work and enjoyed a lot of it, I made many close friends and before I knew it I much preferred Orangeville. Wow, I as I read this I realize how fickle I really am. What a human. Luckily I have God’s facts that I can hold on to that rise above my feelings and are unchangeable despite anything that I feel. If God hadn’t moved me to Orangeville I wouldn’t have met the people that I met and been able to share what I was able to share. But here I am again! I am so excited about what Debra and I are moving on to yet I feel odd inside about this change. Thank goodness God doesn’t change and His plans are always perfect!
On this day..
