The Same

What a comfort it is to know that our God is always the same. He isn't changed by moods or emotions like we are. He is not influenced and prone to sin and evil. He is perfect, unchanging, and everlasting. When things happen that cause us hurt, anger, and disappointment, we are always assured that as Christians, God is always right there next to us, just a thought away. This week, more than ever, I have been aware of God's presence. Not because I'm on a spiritual high and feel really close to God, but because He is there for me when everything else is crazy and uncontrollable.

James 1:17
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

We change all the time. We sin, putting a barrier between us and God, causing heart-ache and hurtful consequences. So many things that we do cause unrest and conflict in our life; but no matter what, God is the same. God is faithful, and God wants to be there for you; to comfort and forgive, to love and build a relationship. He is perfect, and unlike anything else in this world, He will be faithful and will remain the same through all things.

Malachi 3:6a
I the LORD do not change.

Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.


In His Love,
Jessica
