8 years later...He never changes!

8 years ago today I watched my world change before my eyes, but the reality of my dependence on Almighty God is still the same today as it was that day the world trade center buildings went down. though it may have been more apparent on 9/11/01.

it seemed in a heartbeat that my optimistic dreams of a comfortable future were shattered by the explosion of that terrorist attack. like I was suddenly forced to grow up over night, but it was not the world I had expected. it was clear...things would never be the same. and it drove me to my knees to cry out to God, and filled me with a sense of reliance on Him.

and yet 8 years later I could have easily passed over the memorial of the event without giving it much thought.

reality has not changed.

i still need God! my sense of that reality my fade at times, but I hope I'm always drawn back to the truth. drawn into the loving arms of a sovereign God who is in absolute control. I love that about Him...

He will never change.
