Since 2010 is nearly over, I have been thinking about the past year. I would describe 2010 as being a year of change. Jim's mother went to be with the Lord in the beginning of the year. In June, one of our chicklets left the nest. In November, we gained a son-in-law. Also, both of my churches changed pastors in 2010. Our best friends decided to attend a different church instead of the one that we attend. We've had to change vehicles, replace appliances - why I even changed my hairdo this year!
Change everywhere you look ...
However, there is one thing that will never change. I am so thankful that God never changes.
"For I am the Lord, I change not..." Malachi 3:6
and
and
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." Hebrews 13:8
In this ever-changing world, hold on to the one thing that never changes. Your faith is your most important and most constant possession.
