Change is everywhere on the Race. It's been here since the beginning and I guarantee it will be there in the end. AIM tells us not to expect anything because change is inevitable. Actually, probably the only thing we should expect is change. At first it was kinda difficult, being told one thing and then it changes and something else happens. Getting my hopes up about something and then being dropped like a baby. It's frustrating at times, but I am growing accustom to it.
I'm actually glad that its like this, all this change. It's taught me, in a deeper aspect, a truth that I just can't learn enough. Where everything thing else might be changing, God never does.
My location,
the language,
the currency,
the people,
the food,
my team (ect.) might change, but God always remains the same.
I might be in a new country, well God is still where He has always been, in the throne room of my heart. Language changes, well God still speaks to me in my own. Currency? God still paid my debt with His blood. People? They are still family and God has called me to love them just has He loves them. (Lemme add also that His love never changes.) Food? You already know that His Word never changes. He is the only thing I can ever fully and wholly put my hope in. I know that He is always faithful, having my best intentions in His mind. The only way that I can fully understand this about God is by everything else changing around me. While keeping my eyes on Jesus, I can see out of my peripheral that everything else is changing. While everything else is changing, I have my eyes locked on something that doesn't change. This puts confidence in my salvation and foundation.
But this is a constant decision to give God control. Every. Single. Day. I wake up having to give Him full control. With all this change going on I never know what's going on, and when I don't know I "Trust in God." (Proverbs 3.5) Easy? Nah. Worth it? Ill put my life on it, Jesus did.
"For even if the mountains walk away
and the hills fall to pieces,
My love won’t walk away from you,
my covenant commitment of peace won’t fall apart.”
The God who has compassion on you says so.
