He is constant.

what i'm spurred on to see (through both these readings and life in general) is that God is constant. this is such a theme in all of the scriptures... when something goes wrong, when we are coming into a scary situation, when we doubt what He is doing, when we feel uncapable... He is ALWAYS constant. He is always there. He is always good.. He doesn't play about this, He is there.

in church yesterday we looked at james 1:16-18 where james tell us to not be deceived but to remember that all good things come from above... "with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change." in each of the readings we've been doing that is the quality of God that i have seen the most...

* when adam and eve turn from God, He is constant in His protection over them and love for them as He sends them out of the garden that could grow more dangerous for them now and clothes them in their mess
* when abraham and sarah doubt that God could provide the child He promised them at such an old age, He is constant in His provision and promises
* when testing abraham with his idols, He is constant in His love and gifts and has him keep his son
* when moses doubts his ability, God is constant in His strength and provision

it's the whole story of the Bible and the Gospel... God is worth following because He alone never falters. Never falters in His love, His goodness, His strength, His provision, nothing. HOW BEAUTIFUL.
