GOD UNCHANGING: HIS STABILITY
James 1:16-18
Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not; as Thou hast been Thou forever will be
One of the most comforting attributes of God is that he is unchanging. Unlike everything else in creation, God is perfectly stable, never wavering, never shifting, a rock that will never fail. James finds this truth very practical for dealing with the realities of life. In suffering and struggle, it's God's unchanging goodness that anchors us in the storm.
APPLICATION QUESTIONS
1. How does the idea of an unchanging God comfort you? How does it challenge you?
2. How do you think about the gifts in your life? How might they point you to God?
3. What about God's stability makes the gospel more comforting and more joyful?
