Wondering if people can change.
I don’t personally think that people can change their core, but they can definitely grow till almost unrecognisable ❤️🔥 (in good or bad ways)
Might slip back into patterns, but if you’re living, you’re growing, surely. Unless you’re in a bubble.
People come into your life unexpectedly to push that growth I think (again, in good or bad ways).
Just thinking out loud.
This is something I have pondered many times through my life, for a while I was adamant that people could change because I had changed, there was a time In my life when I was a very different person with very different motives, I was a self centred ass for many years.
But, on deeper contemplation, the change that I made was more of a reversion to the way I was before I became that other version of me. So can people change? Certainly, but maybe only in a transitory kind of way.
Meangful, lasting change has to come from a deep internal recognition of the need to change, a place of sincere repentance. And old habits can come back too easily without daily commitment to the changes made. Humility before God certainly helped me 🙏🏼
