There is just something about Jesus. He is the most wonderful friend of all. He loves me in spite of my sin and faithlessness. He loves me in spite of my circumstance. He covers my sin and gives me a song to sing in my heart. There is no one like Him. There is no one in the heavens nor anyone on the earth to which He must submit nor even under the earth that he should pay them mind or obey them. He is great above all things and in all things. Jesus is the greatest friend of all.
It is amazing how powerful He is. He does not react to the pettiness of men or even the rebellion of angels. He is not moved in His will by anything that He has not predetermined that he will be moved by. His will is not fancy or wishful thinking. He can actually perform that which He has decided to do by Himself and with no need for any help. He is the same yesterday today and forever, which means He never changes.
This is great news in a world where change is here to stay. Kingdoms rise and fall, the earth changes. There are seasons of heat and cold and cycles in the earth itself. God made the earth so that it changes, it spins and tilts on its axis and gives us the seasons of the year. God himself does not change He is not subject to the creatures on the earth or their masters; He rules them all. To those who submit to His rule there is life and joy and peace.
To those who rebel there is the foreboding sense of judgement that has been prepared for the Devil and his angels. This judgement was not originally meant for us. We are meant to walk with God: enjoying His love, being embraced by the wonder of His presence, and enjoying the works of God. Adam lost that for all of his race, but Jesus has won it back by taking the wrath of the Father upon Himself in His own body.
There is no one as wonderful as he is. Not even one. He is the only one worth seeking and finding. He is the same yesterday today and forever.
He never changes.
