"Everything Must Change" was the title of my High School Senior Class song. It went something like this: "Everything must change. Nothing stays the same. Winter turns to spring, the young become old and mysteries do unfold. There are only a few things in life that you can be sure of and that is rain comes from the clouds and humming birds do fly…"
Well, that became one of my favorite songs and one of my favorite verses in the Bible is, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (Hebrews 13:8) It is certainly good to know that in the midst of all of the inevitable changes that we face in life, that our Lord and Savior never changes.
Change is one of the things that we experience in life that challenges us to grow in our faith… As we all continue on this journey of faith, let us all welcome change and keep the faith in our Creator who the Apostle Paul writes about in Philippians 1:6, "God who began a good work with you will keep right on helping you grow in God's grace until God's work within you is finally finished on that day when Jesus Christ returns."
