Fixed.

"Here in this maddening maze of things,

When tossed by storm and flood;

To one fixed ground my spirit clings,

I know that GOD is good.

- John Greenleaf Whittier

 

#Navigation is possible because of the existence of fixed points, and by constant reference to these points, sailors make their way around the world.

In life, the attributes of God are fixed points. His love, faithfulness, justice, purity, holiness, power are a few of the established parts of God's nature. Many things in this universe are subject to change- but not the nature of God. What He was, He is, and what He is, He was. And what He was and is, He ever will be! (refer James 13:8)#

"Focus on knowing who God is, and you will never again be at the mercy of the winds of doubt and uncertainty."

The trend these days is for minds to conform to the modern spirit- the spirit that spawns great thoughts of man and leaves room for only small thoughts of God.

- J.I. Packer

And hoping to read this book of Packer's really soon-

P.S. This is something to REMEMBER always!
