Some Things Don't Change

Life is full of changes-seasons change, businesses open and close, relationships that started out full of hope end in divorce, children grow up, jobs are changed, laws change. Even with so many things seeming constant, change is all around us. Just yesterday I was feeling blue but today I'm feeling like my old self again.   As I came across Isaiah 54:10 in my reading this week, I was grateful that amongst all the changes I encounter, there are still some things that remain the same.

This post is a part of Word Filled Wednesday. It is designed to share God's Word through photos and a Bible verse. Fill up on other verses this Wednesday by visiting today's hostess, Lori at All You Have to Give.

Mindful Ponderings

My mind is pondering about peace. Are there certain images that come to mind when you hear the word peace? What does biblical peace look like in comparison to worldly peace? Jesus declares that he left me a gift of peace for John 14:27 says I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give isn't like the peace the world gives. So don't be troubled or afraid (NLT). A gift unopened or tucked away is useless. Have I opened the gift or settled for a substitute?
