Don't Miss This Devotional Thought!

Saw this in my INBOX and thought it was TOO GOOD to not pass on!! Enjoy!!



Changing times, challenging times. How has your life been altered in the last few months? What has changed in the world around you? What hasn't? A. T. Pierson, an old Bible preacher, made a fascinating observation. The higher you look, he said, the less change there is.

Beneath your feet, he noticed, the grass and the insects come and go quickly. Some organisms live for a few hours. The plants and flowers bloom for a season, then wither. A little higher still, the trees endure for more than a season or two; the tallest trees of all, the Sequoias and Redwoods, might last a few thousand years.

Climbing higher, we notice the hills that seem to last for ages, though we know the winds and rains wear them down. Then there are the mountains, even taller, that are as old as this world. Then, in the skies, we have the stars, whose ages are almost immeasurable. Yet all of them change, from the single-celled amoeba to the stately star. All of them are made of whirling atoms, created only for a time. Beyond them, only One does not change. He is the Creator of it all.

We're all too aware that we are at the mercy of time. But God is not. Knowing He is there, forever constant, gives us strength and security. He has been loving, merciful, and gracious since this world was created. And we have the Bible's promise He will never change.

Your View of God Really Matters … Keep your focus on the God of eternity, and you'll never be mastered by the changeable fortunes of the times.
