Last night I reposted a picture I found on Facebook. It said “The world needs a Stable influence!” I think of how much the world has changed just in the last century and then how much it has changed since that babe was found lying in a manger. Change is part of life, but we can better cope with change knowing that there is still stability, too. We can always count on God’s love and God’s saving grace shown to us through the life, death and resurrection of his Son. Society may change but the teachings of Jesus remain true for every generation. Love God, love neighbor, care for the least, the last and the lost, and spread the Good News. Psalm 119:89 says, “Your word, O LORD, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens.” To me that is good tidings of comfort and joy!
In the midst of all the change in the world and in our lives, Lord we pray that you will comfort us with the constancy of your love. Keep us healthy this busy season in mind, body and spirit as we seek to remain in your perfect will. We ask in the name of the one found in the manger. Amen.
