Throughout Our Lives

I saw a picture of my family the other day from some years back. I am always amazed at how much my children have grown, but very rarely do I pay any attention to how I look. This day was different. I saw my picture and noticed how much change there has been in the years since; both in my appearance and in our family’s life.

Pictures do that for us. They help us see what has been and remind us how we got to where we are today.

The differences? Well, the obvious: my children are older and taller now, and me, well, there’s grey that has started to show for sure. But one thing that hasn’t changed, is God’s faithfulness. Isaiah 46:4 says 

I will be your God throughout your lifetime—

until your hair is white with age.

I made you, and I will care for you.

I will carry you along and save you.  (Isaiah 46:4, NLT)

Throughout our lives there will be changes. But one thing that will never change is God’s love and care for his children. So whether you are a child, a senior adult, a teenager, working, retired, wherever you are in life’s stages- you are a child of God and He made you, cares for you, carries you, and saves you!

In His Service,
