The Lord Remains the Same

Written by // Sandra Brock Categories // Thoughts

He Is I Am

The only constant is change, perhaps you've heard that one?
Or the one that my mother told me time and again, This Too Shall Pass. No matter what I was going through or how sad I was, my mom assured me that this too would pass, as everything does.

Nothing remains the same; everything, eventually, changes.

Everything, tat is, except for The Lord.

He is I Am; He is the same today as He was yesterday, and when tomorrow comes, He will be the same still.
And He loves me the same today as He did yesterday; no matter what I do or don't do, even if He is displeased with my actions, He still loves me...I can't change that, and He won't change that.

How awesome is that?
And The Word that He laid out for his centuries ago is still true today; our understanding of it may change as we grow, but the words He gave, through the authors He chose, will always be The Truth.
We can always go there and find Him, in His Word. Because that is part of who He is to us, and that remains the same.
I have changed a lot over the years, and when I married even my name changed; God has many names, and He plays many roles in our lives as Christians...but they all remain the truth, as He is The Truth and The Way...and He always will be all that He is to us.
Daily.
Awesome.

Christ-mas

The Reason for the Season...it sounds so...made up and commercialized to say that He is the Reason for the Season. But the truth is, the real reason we celebrate Christmas is for Christ.

But the stores and the tv specials, and the gimmicks and the gizmos, they so often take the Christ out of Christmas.

As a Christian and a writer, and a Christian Writer, I want to take a moment and write something special about Christ, to put Him back into the holiday that we have as a celebration for His birth.

The Lord was born into life as a child, and then a man to show us the way Home, but not as easily as here, follow me...but Here, people, Follow Me through death on the cross through baptism, and then walk a good life on the Earth telling others about Me, by serving others and loving people into Redemption much the same as I did. He said, take up your cross and follow Me through persecution, to show the world that you'll go through anything to stand up for one thing: Christ.

At this time of year, when it becomes about giving...can you give...? Can you give Christ to a hurting world through how you live before man?

I want to try harder than ever before, through prayer and such simple things as smiling, and being kind; I pray my words may inspire you, Reader--Christian--to inspire others in the ways of Christ.

Merry Christmas
