September 2024
Greetings,
Routines. Many of us appreciate routines, for we know what to expect. Summer is nearing and end, September is upon us. Labor Day often is the transition from Summer to Fall activities. For many of us, we think of the routines we will resume.
Perhaps our schedule was not interrupted too much by summer. But it seems with vacations, family activities, kids out of school, summer jobs. Even the increase of traffic (tourists) on the roads had an impact (and add to this road construction, detours, road work, etc).
There is something comfortable about routines. And with our Lord Jesus Christ, we know what to expect. He does not change, the promise of salvation to all who believe does not change. Our assurance is often a reflection of a hymn many of us have learned and hold dear,
“Change and decay I all around I see.
O thou, who changest not, abide with me!”
