A Word From Beth

Today I'm sharing a little word from Beth Moore.  I hope you're encouraged and challenged!

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

  We take our first breath of terrestrial air in total shock.  Christ alone is unchanged and will remain unchanged for all of eternity. 
  We, on the other hand, are in constant, hair-raising, stomach-turning flux.  As the old saying goes, nothing stays the same but change.
  The truth is, God uses change to change us.  He doesn't use it to destroy us or to distract us but to coax us to the next level of character, experience, compassion, and destiny.
-Thanks Beth!

  1. thank you for these words.

    change is necessary. hard. but necessary.

    these are my favorite words about change..
    "Everybody has to change or they expire. Everybody has to leave, leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons. I want to keep my soul fertile for the changes, so things keep getting born in me, so things keep dying when it is time for things to die. I want to keep walking away from the person I was a moment ago. Only a good story has a character different at the end than it was in the beginning."
