Some Things Never Change

Merry Christmas! I am home now at my parent's house and enjoying every minute of it. There are loved ones near and delicious food to be had at every turn. All about me I see comforting reminders that some things never change; my favorite childhood ornament faithfully put on the tree, my stocking hung on the mantle, and the neighbor's Christmas lights still arranged in the old familiar way.

When I think about how these small, time-honored traditions give me a sense of security, it makes me even more grateful that our God is a God that will not alter or change. The author of Hebrews writes about Jesus “…But you remain the same, and your years will never end." (Hebrews 1:12)

What a comfort it is to know that even when life inevitably changes, God never does!

As we close out this year, we in HD hope you are having a meaningful time with your family celebrating Christ's birth!
