Some People Keep Changing Partners To Avoid Changing Themselves

The arrogance of comfortability can become a disaster
Thinking you can be the master of all circumstances 
Can bring on the stubbornness of growth

Some people keep changing partners
To avoid changing themselves
Some people come into your life as a blessing
Some come as a lesson
One cannot stay the same
Change is inevitable and 
The change you will give 
Can cause a ripple effective that
Can align with changes your partner makes

Don’t be stuck in stubbornness
It calls for deep brokenness and
This will only lead to foolishness

Some people keep changing partners
To avoid changing themselves
Sacrifice is an essential ingredient!
Thinking you can be the master of all circumstances will often show
That the arrogance of comfortability can become a disaster
