David's Daily Devotion for September 3

September 3, 2024 - Good Morning! It's Tuesday, September 3.

On this day in 1967, the entire country of Sweden made a change. 

At 5am that morning, Swedish drivers moved from the left side of the road to the right. Can you imagine? Government leaders had been discussing this change for over a decade, and carefully planning it for several years. All of Europe drove on the right side, and Sweden had been driving cars with left-side steering for as long as anyone could remember. But still, 83% of Swedes were against it. 

Change is challenging, but sometimes change is necessary. 

You have either gone through change, are presently dealing with change, or will experience change in the future - maybe all three! There is comfort, during these times, to claim the unchanging nature of God.

For I, the Lord, do not change. Malachi 3:6

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8

The grass withers, the flower fades, but the Word of God will stand forever. Isaiah 40:8

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no shadow of change. James 1:17
