Adapting can be hard; change can be hard.  I’ve heard it said that some people change when they see the light; others change only when they feel the heat.  Whichever is the case, the scriptures advise us to waste no time in committing ourselves by caring more about God’s plan than worldly priorities.  Here is one scripture from Roman 12:2:

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

So this renewal of mind – trusting solely in God’s will – can be thwarted if we conform to the world.  So do not follow earthly ways that do not bring you closer to God.  Seek instead God’s understanding and your will becomes his will.
