Hebrews 13:8 (NLT) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
DEVOTIONAL:
Life is like a roller coaster, filled with ups and downs, twists and turns. Jobs come and go, friendships change, and even our own feelings and thoughts are in a constant state of change. But guess what? There's One who never changes, Jesus Christ. His love for you is unwavering; His promises are sure, and His nature is consistent.
Imagine a lighthouse in the middle of a stormy sea. Ships rely on it for direction, knowing that it stands firm regardless of the weather conditions. Jesus is that lighthouse in our lives, a beacon of hope and light that never dims. He's the same compassionate healer who touched the lepers, the same loving shepherd who left the ninety-nine to find the one lost sheep, and the same victorious King who conquered death. His love and goodness were true 2000 years ago, they are true today, and they will be true forever.
Having a reliable foundation like Jesus allows us to navigate through life's challenges with courage and wisdom. It gives us the assurance that no matter how much the world around us changes, God's love and promises remains unwavering. He's got you, today and every day.
PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, thank You for being my unchanging foundation. Help me to anchor my life, my choices, and my relationships on You. Strengthen my faith and help me to see Your unchanging hand in my life. In Jesus' name, Amen.
