A Portrait of My God: Unchanging

What if we had a God that changed? A God who's moods were different, and who changed his mind or his characteristics? I'm happy (so happy) to say that my God NEVER changes. He always was and always will be the same. Perfect, holy, loving, true, righteous, powerful, and the list goes on and on. The world and the people in it continue to change, but God never does. Things happen in our lives that make us rejoice or cry. We fail, we love, we grow, we begin to think differently, we change certain behaviors, etc. God doesn't do that. He's always the same.

Ages come and fade
Kingdoms rise and fall
Seasons change
But Jesus is always the same

Seas have storms then calm
Flowers bloom and die
Time is fleeing fast
But Jesus is the same through all of time

So holy, so righteous
So powerful and true
So wonderful
In all you do
I offer up my praises
To one who never changes
For all the ages, Lord,
You are the same

Blessings fall on me
And I walk through fire
I grow weak
But Jesus is always the same

Heartaches come and go
Though I question why
I can rest on this
That Jesus is the same through all of time

My healer, my portion
My comforter and Friend
Your promises
Are always true
I offer up my praises
To one who never changes
For all the ages, Lord,
You are the same

My shepherd, my leader
My Rock and hiding place
You love me still
No matter what I do
I offer up my praises
To one who never changes
For all the ages, Lord,
You are the same
