constant in change

What can we take on trust
in this uncertain life? Happiness, greatness,
pride - nothing is secure, nothing keeps.
~Euripides, Hecuba

change is currently what im in right now. my wife will be giving birth to our son in april and we're moving to a new place tomorrow. change is what the world is dealing with as we watch markets tumble and nations and peoples go to war. As Robert C. Gallagher says"Change is inevitable - except from a vending machine." change produces alot of unknowns. it can leave us worried and confused or feeling out of control.
still, the only constant is change most people will say and that does ring true in this life. but the counterpoint is there: even ships in constantly changing seas have an anchor to help them in the roughest waters. change often makes us feel like a ship floundering in massive swells and we find ourselves searching for an anchor. is it there?
"...God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea; Though its waters roar and foam, Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride...". (Psalm 46:1-3 nasb) I'm wondering if this the anchor we've been looking for. If God is our help and strength when the earth is changing and mountains are collapsing and waters roar then it would stand to reason that God is there when my wife gives birth or when we're going through all thats required to change locations. what change are you dealing with? is the earth changing around you like it is around me? God is our refuge in all of this. Our anchor in our changing seas.
"So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath; So that we, who have gone in flight from danger to the hope which has been put before us, may have a strong comfort in two unchanging things, in which it is not possible for God to be false; And this hope is like a strong band for our souls, fixed and certain..." (Hebrews 6:17-19 bbe) God has a fixed promise and purpose for us. Even when everything else changes- His purpose is fixed and sure. Still wondering if He is your anchor?
"Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or any shade made by turning." (James 1:17 bbe) Our Father doesn't change. In the midst of your change, hold onto the One "with whom can be no variation" (James 1:17b asv). The One who does not change. I'm reminding myself to do just that, cus my seas are rolling along at a nice clip and i know i need an anchor.
