One of the great consolations is that our God has not changed. He is a consistent and constant anchor, an ever present HELP in times of trouble. As we face our personal challenges this morning, let us be assured that the same God that created the earth, separated waters from the skies, placed lights in the sky to guide us, every living creature where He saw fit, rooted the abundance of life in the ground, and brought forth man, the first Adam; He is the same God that we place our faith in today. He is the Almighty God who gave His ONLY begotten son for our sins. Nothing has changed. Charles Spurgeon wrote: He changes not in his attributes. Whatever the attributes of God were of old, that they are now; and of each of them we may sing “As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end, Amen.” Was he powerful? Was he the mighty God when he spake the world out of the womb of nonexistence? Was he the Omnipotent when he piled the mountains and scooped out the hollow places for the rolling deep? Was he wise when he constituted this mighty globe, when he laid the foundations of the universe? Had he wisdom when he planned the way of our salvation? Yes, and he is wise now; he is not less skillful, he has not less knowledge; his eye which sees all things is undimmed; his ear which hears all the cries, sighs, sobs, and groans of his people, is not rendered heavy by the years which he has heard their prayers. He is unchanged, blessed be his name, in his justice, just and holy was he in the past; just and holy is he now. He is unchanged in his truth, goodness, and generosity, and benevolence of his nature. He loves as much now as he did then, and when suns shall cease to shine, and moons to show their feeble light, he still shall love on for ever and for ever. Regardless of what moods or feelings we are experiencing, whether there is chaos or uncertainty, you oh Lord, are constant and unchanging. May we find peace knowing this. You are our anchor because you never change, the same today, yesterday, and forever. GiGi❤️
