"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever" -- Hebrews 13:8 / Holman Christian Standard Bible
Our world is in a state of constant change. God is not. At times, the world seems to be trembling beneath our feet. But we can be comforted in the knowledge that our Heavenly Father is the rock that cannot be shaken. His Word promises: "I am the Lord. I do not change" (Malachi 3:6/NKJV).
Every day that we live, we mortals encounter a multitude of changes - some good, some not so good, some downright disheartening. On those occasions when we must endure life-changing personal losses that leave us breathless, there is a place we can turn for comfort and assurance. We can turn to God. When we do, our loving Heavenly Father stands ready to protect us, to comfort us, to guide us and in time, to heal us.

"In a world kept chaotic by change, you will eventually discover, as I have, that this is one of the most precious qualities of the God we are looking for: He doesn't change" -- Bill Hybels

Lord, our world changes, but You are unchanging. When we face challenges that leave us discouraged or fearful, we will turn to You for strength and assurance. Let our trust in You - like Your love for us - be unchanging and everlasting.
