I recently spent five days away serving at my church's annual camp in the New Forest. One of the worship songs to make the list of sixteen that we took away with us was 'Yesterday, Today and Forever' by Vicky Beeching. It formed a part of several of our worship times, with the thirty of us at the camp raising our voices as high as possible into the open skies above us.
Two days later, I was away with friends to recover from the output given over the days at camp. I attended a church service in Bristol over that weekend and the same song was sung, this time with hundreds of voices cascading the words around the church building.
And the truth of the words hit home.
My hope is in a God who isn't dependant on surroundings, circumstances or time. The declaration of the song that God is unchanging remains true, and in some way that I will never understand, He was equally present in the worship outside in a field in Brockenhurst as at the service in Bristol.
Supreme over all.
God unchanging.
