It is amazing how weather changes from year to year. Last year there was not much severe weather during the spring. When summer arrived, we still did not get rain. There was a major drought in the Southeast. Furthermore, there was not a major hurricane to hit the United States. But 1 year later, there was a severe weather outbreak from February to June. Now it is summer, and although we have not received a lot of rain, there have been occasional showers. It is raining as I type this post.
Things are always changing in life. It is not just the weather that changes around us. Every 4 years, we go through a presidential election (like this year). The leader of the nation changes, as does our nation. We also have new TV shows coming on each season. In the world of sports, players are drafted, traded, hurt, and some retire. Things are never the same from one year to the other.
Even in our personal life, we encounter many different changes. There are times that we experience the death of a family member or the birth of a newborn. Kids grow up and move off, and they experience new things in life as they enter the different levels of school. If you catch my drift, things are always changing.
But there is one eternal truth that never changes:
God
That is pretty basic, but think about it. We are always surrounded by change in life. Nothing is ever the same, and we cannot do anything about it. But from the beginning of time, God has always been. He is the same God today as He was at creation.
Hebrews 13:8 says "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." Keep that in mind in the midst of the changes our your life. No matter what happens, God is the same. He never changes, and He will be there for you.
