He remains the same, His years will never end.

In an ever changing world, I need to hold on this this truth.

As I read the devotion this morning I sit and reflect on how his people must have felt when they heard nothing for 400 years. I get so impatient when I can't see what his plan is for me. I can't imagine an entire lifetime without hearing him speak to me.

The wonderfulness of this passage to me is the reaffirming statement in 1:8.

Your throne, O God, will last forever and ever.

Even when we don't hear immediately from him.

Even when we are going through difficult times.

Even when we are far from him and not living in his word.

His throne will last forever and ever.

I am so thankful this morning that God is great and that his greatness is not dependent on me. His is God alone. The times I get it wrong, fall short and sin don't impact his power or greatness.

No matter what you are facing today, God is the same as he was yesterday. Don't let your circumstances get in the way of God, rather use those circumstances to glorify him. Praise him in whatever storm you may be in. If you are not in a storm then praise him for that!

My storm is more like an afternoon shower. Right now I have some things that I need  to let go of and give completely to him. But overall I can't complain.

Some of you are in a much stronger storm of life. I will be praying for you today and you weather that storm.

No matter what your circumstance is, remember that he always remains the same and his years will never end.

I hope you have a Monday filled with this certainty no matter what you are facing.
