My Daily Journal:
Today’s lesson is a reminder of the immutable (unchanging) nature of God. We grow and mature, I grow and mature, but God, who is perfect, has no room or need for growth and maturity or change of any kind. The God that we know through the love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the man who walked on the earth, ate, drank, breathed, suffered, died and raised Himself from the dead of His own power, is the exact same God in every way that created the heavens and the earth. This does not mean God is inanimate or somehow frozen is a fixed state. This is the wrong understanding of unchanging. God is alive. He not only acts, but He reacts to the cries and desires of His people. But don’t mistake, the God of the old testament and the God of the new testament are the exact same in every visible and invisible way.
The Notes are Good
