CHANGE HAPPENS
Change – that’s the big word associated with the 2008
presidential race in the United States of America. Every candidate professes to be the best
executor of improvement, the most competent change agent for their nation’s and
the world’s well being.
Maybe they are willfully ignoring the fact that
“change happens, whether you want it to or not!”
Seasons change.
Spring follows Winter. It happens every year. Summer changes to Fall.
Change happens.
Children grow up.
They become adults. Marry. Move
away. Then some of them come home with their own sons and daughters. Change
happens.
And we grow older.
Hair turns grey. Joints creak. Medicine bottles jostle for room on the
shelf. Change happens.
Our friends cross the river. We could be next. It’s inevitable. Change happens.
But God says, I DO NOT CHANGE!
Immovable, dependable, faithful, true to His Word – that’s our God. From a past eternity to a future that’s
everlasting, God is God! He can be
trusted.
And it’s because of Him – the immutable God – Jesus Christ, the same,
yesterday, today, and forever – that we wobbly, waffling creatures of change
can find stability, assurance and confidence.
It’s not by chance you happened on this web page today, so let me
invite you – no matter what changes you have endured or are presently
experiencing – let me invite you to throw out the anchor of your faith onto the
Rock of Ages.
I’m going through some significant changes in my life, but of this I
can be certain – no matter how the storms of life may howl and threaten, no
matter how much I may shake and shiver in my little boat, MY ANCHOR HOLDS!
Why don’t you contact me or, better still, come visit us in Frankford
and let us share with you the certainty we have found in Jesus.
Your friend by God’s amazing grace,
