Change is never easy—especially when it means letting go of a season we’ve loved or finding the courage to step into the unknown. But tonight’s devotional reminds us that “the end of a thing is better than its beginning” (Ecclesiastes 7:8). In God’s economy, endings are not failures—they’re invitations to something new.

We may prefer predictability, comfort, and familiarity. But God's Spirit is always calling us forward—to growth, transformation, and deeper trust. When we cling too tightly to what was, we risk missing what God is doing now.

As you reflect tonight, ask yourself:
What season might be coming to a close in my life? Whether it’s a role, a ministry, or a mindset, you can release it with gratitude, knowing the God of yesterday is also the God of tomorrow.

📖 Tonight’s Scripture:

“Better is the end of a thing than its beginning.” – Ecclesiastes 7:8 (ESV)

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
