Sometimes simple is best.
I am always too “flowery” and too long in my writings. My mom constantly has to shorten the posts I write for this blog. And even then I’m usually 100 words over what she wants! But today I was thinking about simple. To the point.
Big changes are brewing in my life. But isn’t that how life goes? Life-changing changes constantly a part of our days. Some good and some bad. A roller coaster with ups and downs, thrills and scares, twists and turns, and sometimes just coasting along at a leisurely pace.
If we knew what was in store for us we would probably not ever get out of bed!
And yet even in all of this change there is one simple truth that keeps coming to mind:
“Jesus Christ is [eternally changeless, always] the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 AMP
So maybe today is not so great. Or maybe it is great, but God knows what tomorrow will bring. Perhaps you have a new job, new spouse, new house, or you’re losing a job, losing a spouse, losing a house. Maybe you are making a big move, experiencing loss, having your heart broken, welcoming a new baby, or just unsure of what to do and wrecked with anxiety. Guess what? Jesus Christ is unchangeable, unflappable, unmovable, and always the same. Sit with that today. All day in all the changes remind yourself of this simple truth.
(And I have 8 words to spare!! Yes!!)
Feel free to share...
