What do You see, that's worth looking our way?

Excellent song at the bottom :)


"For I am the Lord, I do not change." Malachi 3:6


"Sleepy time prayers"...the ones that can be the sweetest to me. The ones where you're just waking up and start praying.... I find that God really reveals things to me that way sometimes. I was seeking God's wisdom and guidance not only in my life, but I was asking him to speak wisdom into lives of a few close friends. It was then, laying in my cozy bed, that I realized that though my everydays lately seem to be confusing, chaotic, out of control and anxiety filled...things and people are going every which way. With all the stuff in my life,  I am so incredibly thankful to have God...Who IS consistent, never changing, always always the same. He is always there, He is not a confusing God. He can not lie and He will not change His mind (Numbers 23:19). He is the one thing in life that is constant, and I can't even express how my thinking changed today....


What's even more hard to comprehend is the fact that I don't even deserve this kind of love, but yet God graciously gives anyway. Maybe I'm crazy for finding such comfort in His consistency, but I have the feeling that maybe I'm not :) I can only imagine that 99.all% of us need that in our lives. As it sat on my heart all day, I realized the importance of my consistency as well. Just as I need it from our unchanging God, people need it in their everyday relationships. It's just something that I really appreciate it in other people, and I know they are seeking it from me as well.  Not that I can in any way compare to the consistency of God, but I will do my best to be a constant and loving friend and sister. I'm not able to express how much I appreciate God's constant love, guidance, wisdom and grace. It's such a comfort to know that no matter what..no matter how big the storm...God is always here...with unconditional, continual and unchanging love for me.


"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. " James 1:17
