I don't know about anyone else but in a world that is constantly changing, I am so grateful God is consistent!
In the world today everything seems to change so incredibly fast! You can purchase a computer today and in only a months time it could be considered obsolete. Not to mention cell phones, or
i-pods, televisions and the forms in which we listen to or watch movies and music. Maybe it's just that I'm getting older, things seem to be changing so much faster than they use to, but I think its more due to the increase of knowledge in technology. The increased rate of our growth in technology seems to have kept in step with our schedules as well.
This rapid rate runs so against the grain for me, that when I find myself caught up in it, I panic! Not in the sense that I become fearful, I become frazzled!!!! I can keep up for a day or so, but after that I go into some sort of a melt down, and I find myself hunting for any place to sneak away, kind of like someone who is addicted to nicotine and just has to have that smoke and every where they go it's no smoking allowed! So, I guess now it's out in the open, I am a quiet time addict and no form of rehab will ever change me!!
The one thing that keeps me always going back for more to my times of solitude is that my Father, my Friend is always there, always the same. It fills me like fuel in an automobile, I can't run without it. Although, it may cost me more, it doesn't matter, I'll pay it. Because without it, I'm going no where! I find myself becoming more dependent on those times much more often than I use to. In a time when we can get so caught up in the whirlwind of life, I find this so refreshing, knowing no matter how fast and furious this world can get, no matter how much change goes on around us Our heavenly Father is always there....always loving.....always merciful......always compassionate.....always forgiving.....always full of hope....always passionate about us.....always dependable........
"For I, the Lord, do not change"
Malachi 3:6a
I pray this brings you peace and sends you into His presence today.
