Everything changes, But God Never Will.
We can change our minds, and God will remain the same.
In Scripture, God is often compared to a rock or a fortress — a stunning mental image of steadiness, surety, and constancy.
Psalm 71:3 says, “Be to me a rock of refuge, a strong fortress, to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress.”
Or Psalm 94:22, “But the Lord has become my stronghold, and my God the rock of my refuge.”
Or again in Psalm 62:2, “He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken.”
Over and over, Scripture reminds us of God’s steadfastness. And in case you’re not into rock or fortress metaphors, here’s the same message even more clearly in the book of Hebrews: “Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever” (Hebrews13:8).
We have permission to make changes in our lives because we serve a God who never changes. He will always remain faithful. You can change your job, your house, your hairstyle, or your opinion. For some of us, change is a welcome relief. For others, it’s terrifying. But like an unyielding rock in the middle of a storm, God is there through it all.
When things are changing around us — whether because we chose them or because our circumstances determined those changes for us — we can lean on the Rock who is higher, steadier, and stronger than us. Our hope, reassurance, and strength to keep going is the unchanging promise that Jesus Christ will never change. He will always be the One we can cling to, trust in, and rely on.
When everything is changing, God never will.
Remember that always. And hang onto hope,
Naks.
