Tuesday... He always has and always will.
I'm looking out on some mountains. I love doing that. Now those mountains have been there a long time. Around 25 years ago when I first came to Las Vegas they were there. I came through this town with my parents over 60 years ago and they were there. The world around them has changed but they haven't. No matter what has happened around them they are still the same.
Now there is a security in looking out on those mountains. I can trust those mountains. That can't be said of the valley. There has been great changes since the first time I came to this valley but not those mountains. I love living close to mountains. I really do.
The Psalmist in Psalm 125:1-2 (MSG) says, "Those who trust in God are like Zion Mountain: Nothing can move it, a rock-solid mountain you can always depend on. Mountains encircle Jerusalem, and God encircles his people - always has and always will."
There is so much that we put our trust in but it changes and we get frustrated. People do that, jobs do that, things do that, we do that. We put our trust in people and things and when they change it throws us. We've gone through change in the past few years and it has been rough, hasn't it?
We've been gone a few years from Vegas and we have come back and there have been changes. I knew this town when I left but it isn't the same.
Even people change. You think you have someone figured out and they do something you weren't expecting and it throws you off. I had something happen this weekend and it threw me a little. I didn't expect it.
But God never changes. I can trust Him.
And the last verse of this Psalm says, (NLT), "May Israel have peace." With trust comes peace in whatever we are going through. Remember this, "He always has and always will." There is peace in that! Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning
