Unchanging Blessings

Unchanging Blessings. Hebrews 13:5-15When life feels fragile and the news is upsetting, I need to remember that God never changes and wisdom says there is nothing new under the sun.We often make excuses out of our circumstances, claiming that because the circumstances remain the same, we cannot do this or do that; we cannot make any progress, or we cannot snap out of our misery because the situation is the same. We then resign to our fate and embrace a sense of fatalism. When we do that, we are saying that our destiny is determined by our circumstances instead of by the God who is above all. However, the Bible contains stories after stories of how God's people were not defeated by dismal circumstances, and how God could still demonstrate His love and faithful power in spite of seemingly bad situations. Therefore, circumstances cannot define our fate, nor can they disprove God's love.Circumstances may change all the time, but if we can be transformed into a more blessed, satisfied and Christ-like follower of God, this change can benefit us for a lifetime. May God continue His good work in all of us!
