Our Eternal God

I'm taking the commercial break on "The Amazing Race" to start this post, and I've also got an exciting Ted Dekker book on hold on my iPad.   How did I ever get along without electronics?    I'd be reading books printed on paper and would have to find an encyclopedia to look up information on Azerbajiani, the country where the racers were tonight.   Were the good old days good or just a variation of modern life?   Do the flickering shadows of candlelight beat the flickering shadows of a television set?  I don't know, but I will stop to be sincerely thankful for home appliances.   At times I'm amazed by the changes in this world in my lifetime and reassured that some things won't ever change.   My Jesus, the Starkindler, is God eternal, never changing, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.

Hebrews 13: 8

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

The Starkindler - Michael Card

Lyrics to Starkindler by Michael Card:

A billion bright and holy beams

Of a light that’s traveled far

Began the trip from His fingertips
The wonder of the stars
Affirm the signs and seasons
So silently they sing
Of the wonder of their kindler
Of the power of their king

Oh the fiery suns above us
In the vast veil of the sky
Are your servant flames of fire
Are your silent holy guides
And like the star lit magi
May the guide our souls to you
As they shine the light of awesome love
Into eyes that see anew

A billion bright and holy beams
Of a light that’s traveled far
Began the trip from his fingertips
The wonder of the stars
And like the star lit magi
May the guide our souls to you
As they shine the light of awesome love
Into eyes that see anew
