I read this recently,' Change is the only constant in life',so very true, I am sure I don't need to remind you of this,we are reminded of this everywhere we look.It was Heraclitus who said,'You cannot step in the same river twice',because the river is constantly changing.in other words if you step in a river,you are stepping into a specific bit of water,and If you withdraw your foot and step in again,you are stepping in a different bit of water. It was Henry F.Lyte who wrote,'Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who changest not ,abide with me'. Unlike creation that is always changing God does not change, God is immutabile, He has no physical body,He is spirit, his moral character does not change. Tozer wrote,' In God no change is possible; in men change is impossible to escape'. Charles Wesley wrote,'And all things as they change proclaim. The Lord eternally the same'. 'For the Christian it is a great comfort that He is the same everyday always welcoming,never changes His mind,His love is constant ( Jeremiah 31 v 3) His mercy is assured ,likewise His presence,and His power. It is a source of wondrous strength to know that the God with whom we have to do changes not. That His attitude towards us is the same as it was in eternity past and will be in eternity to come'.( Tozer)
