Some things never change!

I'm all about change - I have to be to work at the Network of Hope, because we're all about change. But sometimes too many changes can come at once, even for me. That's when I'm glad that some things NEVER change. When I'm feeling like I'm in the whirlwind, and everything around me is blowing wildly, I have to stop and take hold of some of the things that are not changing around me. Here are a few examples of my favorite things that never change:

God's love - "But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord's love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children's children. (Psalm 103:17)

God's Word - "Your word, O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens (Psalm 119:89)

God's kingdom - "How great are his signs, how mighty his wonders! His kingdom is an eternal kingdom; his dominion endures from generation to generation" (Daniel 4:3)

God's protection - "The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, 'Destroy him!'" (Deut. 33:27)

Those are just a few truths that keep me grounded when everything else seems to be changing. I can also count on God to:

accomplish what concerns me (Psalm 138:8)
forgive me of me sins (I John 1:9)
complete the work He has begun in me (Philippians 1:6)
be with me (Hebrews 13:5)
help me through my trials and temptations (I Corinthians 10:13)

Aren't you glad some things NEVER change?????
