Material things and personal benefits are easily taken for granted. I know this because when something to which I am accustomed is no longer is available, I always feel surprised and disappointed. Presumption, it seems, is a constant nemesis and is sad result of exaggerated self-importance. So what is God’s answer to the constant tendency to be presumptuous? Shifting sand, inconstant circumstances, tidal changes, bizarre weather; in other words, nothing in this world endures exactly the way it is right now and this is by divine design. In this way He keeps us constantly reminded and forewarned, this world is not our home. Merciful God, upon You the Solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand. O LORD Eternal, You Alone are the forever constant. Thank You for the reminders.
