An Unchanging God in a Changing World
Scripture- Hebrews 13:8
Every day that God graces us with the blessing of waking up, we notice changes in all aspects of the world. These changes are highlighted as, but not limited to physical, cultural, climatic, and civic changes. In the midst of all of this change, we serve an unmoving God. Trouble and disaster have come raging, leaving believers and non-believers awestruck at the devastation. But we still serve an unchanging God.

His standard of holiness hasn’t changed, and neither has his grace that is given to us every time we fall out of his will. This same grace that was given to the Israelites thousands of years ago, is accessible to us
