A Typical Spring Day

If you live in the north, this will be very familiar to you. If you live don't live in a climate like ours, let me describe a somewhat common April day.

Both of these pictures were taken on Saturday, April 10th. On Friday, the 9th, I mowed the lawn in shorts and a t-shirt and I was hot. Saturday morning we woke up and all the ground was covered in snow and we had to clean off our car windows. Then Saturday afternoon we were out in the backyard playing ball once again in shorts. The common expression around here in the spring is, "If you don't like the weather, wait an hour, cuz it will change."

Some of us have lives that seem like Spring in Northwestern PA. Nothing seems to be constant. Every moment the unexpected seems to happen. Wouldn't it be nice if something was constant? If something was rock solid and unchanging?

Well, there is. It is our Lord Jesus Christ. He never changes, never has a bad day and is never in a bad or unpredictable mood. What a comfort to serve a God who truly is the constant in our lives.

I love the weather here, but I am sure glad my mood or life is based on Jesus and not on something ever changing like the weather.
