DECEMBER 29, Hebrews 13:8

What are the four seasons? They are spring, summer, autumn, and
lastly, winter. Most of the time, each season lasts about 3 months. Countries
very far north or south of the Equator would have longer winters and
shorter summers; countries nearer the Equator have shorter winters and
longer summers. Countries like Singapore, which is almost exactly on the
Equator, have summer all year long.

If we were to live in a country where there are four seasons, you will
find that you have to wear very different clothing for the different seasons.
A spring season outfit can include a raincoat, boots, an umbrella, a hat
or gardening clothes. A summer outfit can include sunglasses, a hat, flip
flops, a t-shirt, and shorts. This is what we are used to in Singapore. An
autumn outfit can include overalls, a jacket or pullover. A winter outfit
would probably include a heavy winter jacket, boots, scarf, mittens, and
wool hat. Seasons change.

People change too. Have some fun and ask mummy for old photos
of her and your dad when they were courting – that is before they were
married. They were a lot younger then, and you may be able to spot
big differences!

We change. You are growing up, and one day you will be an adult.
Then age will catch up and you will be as old as mummy and daddy.
Eventually, you can be as old as your grandparents! And when we age, we
change. Our bodies become weaker and we fall sick more easily.
Everything changes. Except Jesus, for He is the same yesterday, today
and forever! Now what does that mean to us? This means that Jesus will
always be true and kind and always there for us. This is because Jesus is
God and God does not change. He does not age, for God is timeless. He
does not gain more knowledge, for God is omniscient – meaning He
knows all things.

Isn’t it wonderful to have an all-powerful and all-knowing Lord in
Jesus who at the same time is always true and kind and always there for us?

Go to Him today, and every day!

Thought: Jesus never changes!

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You so much that Jesus never changes. It is
so comforting for me as I can always seek His help and grace. Thank You
also that He always understands my problems and needs, as He was born
a man like us. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
