Our Unchanging God

 “… It’s good for me to be near God. I have taken my refuge* in you, my LORD God, so I can talk all about your works!”Psalm 73:28 (CEB)

Everyone has troubles from time to time. It’s part of life. Sometimes our troubles seem to overwhelm us, like waves on a storm-tossed sea. Think of the apprehension Peter must have felt when asked by Jesus to get out of the boat the disciples were in and come walk to Him. Raging seas all around him; the wind was whipping up the waves. We are not talking about a placid surface Peter was being asked to climb onto. He had the faith to make the initial step, but once on the surface of the water he became distracted by his surroundings. Think about how his apprehension must have changed to terror when he started to sink. His faith wasn’t enough to keep him afloat, however, it is important to note that Jesus was there instantly to take his hand, they were immediately back in the boat and the winds became still.[1] Christ will never leave us nor forsake us.[2] Never. The ever-watchful eye of God is aware of all our comings and goings and will not let us fall unless we insist on it through our own ignorance and arrogance.

God is our refuge in time of trouble. He is our shelter, our comforter, our one and only true source of help in this crazy, mixed up world we live in. God is the only One who never changes. He is the model of consistency. He is always the same. God can be relied upon. That is why He and He alone can be trusted to take care of us and deliver us from calamity. Stay close to God. Surrender your entire life to Him today. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
