He Never Will Change

Though we are like this flower, which will soon fade away, God will never change!
One aspect of modern technology that I am very thankful for overseas is my Kindle! It is such a blessing to be able to carry so many wonderful books in one small space. I’ve actually done a lot of reading since arriving here, and, as they say at McDonalds, “I’m loving it!”

Speaking of which, here is a quote I’ve really appreciated lately: it’s by A.W. Pink and referring to the immutability (or unchangableness) of God.

“Herein is solid comfort. Human nature cannot be relied upon; but God can! However unstable I may be, however fickle my friends may prove, God changes not…all praise to His glorious name, He is ever the same. His purpose is fixed; His will is stable; His word is sure.

Here then is a Rock on which we may fix our feet, while the mighty torrent is sweeping away everything around us. The permanence of God’s character guarantees the fulfillment of His promises: “For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed but My lovingkindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of My peace be removed,’ saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.” (Is 54:10)

  1. They seriously say that at McDonalds? :)

    That's a great quote! I haven't read that book yet, but it looks like maybe I should.
