No Shadow of Turning

 
As the sun relocates throughout the sky during the day the shadows created change in relationship to the sun. There is one point in the day where there is no shadow or varying. At 12:00 the sun is directly above head.
The bible states every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights who does not change like shifting shadows. Don't you get excited when you think about the fact that you serve a God that is never changing. This means that he is the same God that parted the Red Sea and muzzled the mouth of the fierce lions in the den with Daniel. He is the same God that healed the sick and lame and forgave their sins, he is the same God that honored the faith of the women with the issue of blood. He is also the same God that wept at the news of Lazarus' death but with his all powerful hand raised him from the grave.
This message today reminds us to look up to the father of lights who remains faithful even though we fail him daily. It reminds us to not waiver in our trust in him because he has an extensive track record
and a heart that beckons us daily. Look up today for your God will never fail you, vary or change.

Father, I take comfort in the fact that you are a constant in my life. I believe that your word is true and I am thankful that you are always faithful. Help me to remember this especially when my circumstances seem hopeless. I will focus on your faithfulness today.

Amen
