Our Unchanging God

Our Unchanging God

Out of the blue one day my email quit working. I couldn’t send or receive. “Password incorrect.” Really? I hadn’t changed anything. I checked, double-checked, and triple-checked that the password was correct. What gives?

Apparently the email program had been “updated” and even though my password was correct, the program now required an additional password. Somehow I missed that memo.

Or how about the “Software update required” messages? These always seem to pop up right when you don’t have time to do an update, and of course you’re dead in the water till the update is completed. And how unsettling when you get “This page no longer exists”!

I never thought computers, phones, and the web would make me appreciate Malachi 3:6—“I the LORD do not change.”

Twenty-five hundred years ago the Greek philosopher Heraclitus said, “the only constant is change.” What if he had lived in our day?!?

How assuring to know that “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). We’ll never be locked out of His presence, denied access to His promises, or find He no longer exists.
