Immutable...Changeless

This morning while driving home from work at Christian Horizons, I was composing a new song, an anthem of praise to our God for His incredible attributes. The 1st verse is concering the immutability of our God. Webster's definition is - "Immutable - not capable of or susceptible to change". I'm eternally grateful that we don't have to concern ourselves with the moodiness of God. He's not "up" one day and "down" the next like we are. We change, He changes not.

The verse that came to mind as I was driving home was..."Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17 (NIV). The King James Version rendering is the one that I'm accustomed to and I like it a lot..."with Whom there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."

Let's worship this eternal, changeless God today. We can count on Him! He has spoken through His Word and He cannot lie, or go back on what He has said. Yes, He is IMMUTABLE! Hallelujah!
