Embracing God’s Unchanging Love

There’s a simple affirmation I often share with God and myself, sometimes more than once a day, and usually before my feet touch the floor in the morning. I quietly thank God for letting me walk in the light of His love. This has nothing to do with whether the sun is shining outside. It’s about something deeper — the steady, unchanging love of God.

I can be sure of this because Christ lives in me, and I am in Him. God has promised to be my heavenly Father, and His love never shifts or fades. No matter what happens, whether I’m awake, walking through my day, or resting at night, I remain surrounded by the warmth of His love. This truth is firm and unchanging.

What matters is that we remember our identity in Him.

nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:39

A thought for today: Understanding God’s Unchanging Essence

One of the most profound truths about God is that His essence—His very being—never changes. While we might not fully understand what God is, we can be certain that He remains the same throughout time. This unchanging essence is what makes God completely trustworthy and reliable.

Jesus’ teachings do not change. Hebrews 13 tells us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today, and forever. Do not be misled by varied and strange teachings…”

The concept of God’s unchanging essence might be difficult to grasp, but it’s a foundational truth that gives us a sense of security. In a world where everything else is subject to change, God stands as the one constant. His nature, His love, His justice—they all remain the same, giving us a firm foundation to rely on.

This unchanging nature of God also has practical implications for our lives. It means that God’s promises are always dependable. When He says He loves us, that love is constant and unchanging. When He promises to guide us, we can trust that He will do so faithfully. This assurance allows us to live with confidence, knowing that God is always with us and for us.

Understanding God’s unchanging essence deepens our faith and strengthens our relationship with Him. It reminds us that God is not like us—He is perfect, holy, and constant. This realization helps us to trust Him more fully and to rest in His unchanging nature, knowing that He is always working for our good.
