UNCHANGING


The longer we live, the more we see that life is ever
changing.  Technologies change, opinions change,
attitudes change, customs change, diets change.
There seems to be no end to changing things.

And after a time most of us get tired of the
constant change.   We want something that is
 unchanging.  We want things to stand still
long enough for us to get our "bearings" or
sense of direction.  [Well, except for a few things.
We all have something that we want changed.]

We are tired of being dizzy.  We want the
merry-go-round to stop so we can get off.
We want to throw out an anchor to keep
our little boat from drifting down stream.



But what can we attach our anchor to.  Or what foundation
can we build on that will not be constantly shifting?



THE HOLY BIBLE.

God assures us over and over that his word is unchanging.
His word is going to outlast the heavens
and earth.

Is that stable enough for you?

Some one once said,

"God's word won't change!!!
Either we say 'Amen' or 'Ouch.'"




The creator himself said,

"So then, anyone who hears
these words of mine and obeys
them is like a wise man who built
his house on rock.  The rain  
poured down, the rivers flooded
over, and the wind blew hard
against that house.  But it did not
fall, because it was built on rock.
"But anyone who hears these
words of mine and does not obey
them is like a foolish man who
built his house on sand.  The 
rain poured down, the rivers
flooded over, the wind blew hard
against that house, and it 
fell.  And what a terrible fall
that was!"
(Matthew 7:24-26 GNT)

Build your life on the unchanging
word of the God who created you.
