The deeper you get in muck and destruction of your life the more you want to make a change. Change driven by wanting to eliminate pain is greater than change made by wanting to get better.

Even in the Bible, Jesus saw a man lying there and learned he had been in poor condition for a long time. Jesus asked him, “do you want to get well?”

It’s a fair question. The invalid had developed a system of living his life with this condition for thirty-eight years. If he became well, his entire life would change. He would need to be responsible. He would need to work and now pay back any debts and/or bills.  He wouldn’t receive sympathy from others. If Jesus, who healed many, asked a man if he wanted to get well, it’s a question you could ask yourself about your situation.

“Do you want to get better?”

Or is your life kind of like the phrase, it’s the devil I know. Are you afraid to make a change because new responsibilities will occur?  If you were blessed with more finances, would you know what to do with them? Would you give back or try to help the poor? If you were better with your intelligence, would you strive for a new position at work, or a new job that would bring on new challenges.

Because if you want to get better, you can get better.
