IN A WORLD OF UNRELENTING change, I am the One who never changes. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. Find in Me the stability for which you have yearned.
Dear Jesus, Sometimes our head spins with all the changes going on in the world around us. The more we focus on them,, the more unsteady we feel. We long for stability, for permanence of some sort, but the world provides only ever-increasing rates of change. So we look to You, to provide what this world cannot. Amen.
Beloved, your yearning for permanence is good because it is a longing for eternal, invisible reality. That reality is primarily about Me, and I draw near to responses to your seeking heart. I am able to give you a firm place to stand, setting your feet on a rock. You may wonder where such a place can be found. It also is invisible. I am your Rock, your Fortress, your Stronghold. Take refuge in Me, and you will find Me sufficient.
- Jesus
