The Everlasting Same

A single Chinese elm branch, close-up. Solitary beauty.

We need help today…What if we had someone who was entirely dependable? What if we could find someone entirely trustworthy someone who never failed? Would it help if that person, knew all things? What if we could pile on having all the power? And what if we could heap on this person being able to be everywhere present? Could you and I use someone like that right now in this time of national and world crisis?

YES!

Would you believe me if I told you there IS Someone like this? All power, all knowledge (even of virus), are found in this One, who is also everywhere present. Best news…this One never changes.

His name is Jesus. The Bible tells us this about Him:

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8

The branch of the Box-elder, the trunk of the same tree behind. Jesus made it all.

Jesus never changes…ever…in the past, today, the forever future, Jesus remains the same. Just who is Jesus? Take your pick from this list…one or all:

1.       Emmanuel-God with us

2.       Yeshua: able to deliver, to save

3.       The Way

4.       The Truth

5.       The Life

6.       The Bread of Life

7.       The Living Water

8.       The Good Shepherd

9.       Mighty God

10.   Everlasting Father

11.   Prince of Peace

12.   Savior

The above 12 are just a start…

How do we deal with our anxious thoughts, fears, and worries in these uncertain days?

Worried? Troubled? In fear? We need someone who never changes…

Eyes on Jesus!



“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.

And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

The twigs of Box-elder…buds in development.
