Stay Awake Monday//Immutable God//Brooke

34
I can't stop thinking about the fact that God is 100% unchanging in His character. I feel like my life is one big change right now in so many different areas. Nothing seems to be staying the same in my life or in those dear to me.

But God.  He is who He says He is. again and again. over and over.

immutable.
unchanging.
consistent.
fixed.
l a s t i n g.

God is the one thing in our ever changing lives that holds. that sticks.

"The Lord is immutable--it is impossible for His character or being to undergo any mutation.  His power can not be augmented or diminished.  He never learns or forgets, and He can not be anything other than perfectly holy.  Human beings can change in a multitude of ways, but our Father remains ever the same."  --RC Sproul

Our health changes.
Our friends change.
Our majors change.
Our feelings constantly change.
Our families change.
Our status changes.
Our finances change.
Our moods change.
Our interests change.

Our changing scenarios here on earth bring joy-aches-questions-answers-loss-hope-pain.

And even though we don't know what change the day/month/year may hold I have found that the consistency in the character of God has brought much stability to my life.

He is faithful. always will be.
He is true. always will be.
He is peace. always will be.
He is love. always will be.
He is just. always will be.
He is grace. always will be.
and on and on and on and on it goes.

"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today & f o r e v e r." Hebrews 13:8

Rest in His consistency & share this Good God with others.

//Please listen to this song.  I got introduced to it today and it put words to the things going on in my heart and mind.  [It's a song called You never change by Austin Stone worship.  It's off their brand new album This Glorious Grace]//

Also, if you are going through a season of change I recommend this book--Girl Meets Change by Kristen Strong.  The tagline says, "Truths to Carry you Through Life's Transitions"--super helpful book that points you straight to Scripture.
Stay Awake.
