CHANGE I CAN BELIEVE IN

Everybody's talking change.

I'm definitely for change!

But, I'm looking for a change that will last a lifetime and will make a difference throughout eternity.

Here's some "change words" that will last.

"Do not remember the former things,
nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I will do a new thing,
now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
I will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert."
Isaiah 43: 18-19

"He has put a new song in my mouth-
Praise to our God;
Many will see it and fear,
and will trust in the Lord."
Psalms 40:3

"Behold, I tell you a mystery:
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed-
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.
For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible,
And we shall be changed."
1Corinthians 15:51

"But we all, with unveiled face,
beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord,
are being transformed into the same image
from glory to glory,
just as by the Spirit of God."
2Corinthians 3:18

"Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning."
Psalm 30:5b

"You have turned for me my
mourning into dancing;
You have put off my sackcloth
and clothed me with gladness."
Psalm 30:11

Jesus is making "... you complete
in every good work to do His will,
working in you what is well pleasing in His sight,
through Jesus Christ,
to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen."
Hebrews 13:21

I could go on forever.

God's Word is about change.

And, I'm glad that He, and He alone, has the power to make changes that will last.

Glad because His power is always motivated by love!

That's the kind of change I can count on!
