It happens. What is normal is suddenly, or unexpectedly, not normal.  We have things set up a certain way. It’s a way we know and may be comfortable with.  Of course we could absolutely hate the way things are too.

No matter the situation there is one thing you can count on when it comes to things here on Earth. At some point, they will change.

Kids grow up.  Cars wear out.  Job markets dip.  Political parties and agendas are voted in or out.  The list goes on and on.

Take comfort though. As we go through changes, we have a foundation and anchor that does not. Have faith that our God provides the important things and has never failed to hold us up in the middle of all the changes we face.

He is the same God who was, who is, and who will be.  Abide in him and he will abide with us.

“Oh thou who changes not, abide with me”. When we sing that song, we echo scripture that assures us that among all change there is one constant.  A God that knows us and takes care of us.

Don’t fear change. Trust in the one who doesn’t.
