You are almost there! It is almost summer time. Growing up I remember how much I loved looking forward to the summer. No more school, sleeping in, video games and many other activities. As parents it is very different. You still have to worry about schedules, vacations, what your child is going to be doing while you are at work and many more things.
Looking over the next 4 months you have much that is going to happening. You might have a senior graduating high school, you might be having your oldest going into high school, and you might be having all your children in high school all at once. You go from the the scheduled school activities to, what are doing this summer mentality. Either way there is much that is about to change for you and me, but one thing we can hold onto is the unchanging God that we serve.
Have you ever put much thought into that attribute of who God is? God being constantly God with no outside force causing him to act, change or move because he is God. It is really a profound thing to think about. If we took a moment to think about our lives. What causes effect you? Food, a co-worker, sinuses, heater doesn't work, someone drew a crooked line that you are unable to fix, an off center picture frame, dog hair on the floor, and the list goes on. You name it but there is so much that happens in our lives that cause us to change in our attitude, thought processes, actions.
As parents we can see how change completely effects us and our children. When you are driving to a baseball game, that family gathering, the family vacation, the graduation party, the job traveling event, or the lake or whatever else might be in the schedule, remember the constant that is Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. as Hebrews 13:8 says, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
