The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. --- Lamentations 3:22-23
PRAYER THOUGHT
"The only thing constant is change." This saying is attributed to the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, one of the most significant Western thinkers to have lived before Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. In making such a statement, Heraclitus captured what many others have also recognized: that there is precious little that is stable in the world around us. Even the mountains, which appear to be so unchanging, are over millennia subject to erosion and other effects that slowly but surely alter their shape. But it is not just the world outside us that is unstable. Over time, we also experience physical, mental, moral, and spiritual changes.
To find true stability and permanence, we must look beyond the created order to its Creator. Scripture tells us God is unchanging. This is a great comfort to us. God is unchanging, and He does not break His promises.
ACTION PLAN
We live in uncertainty. Trust the Lord and let His stability become foundational to your daily living. Pray that people would experience the calm God gives you and would ask you how you remain levelheaded. Tell them it is the faithfulness of the Lord that keeps you grounded.
