Daily Devotionals by Ardith Keef

       Nothing on earth stays the same.
     As the Bible tells us, all nature is groaning and straining, pressing toward prophetic events.
     And just as your body will not stay the same until you are resurrected, nothing around you does either!  Don't be fooled. The saying "prayer changes things" has become such a buzz phrase, it is easy to overlook its truth!
     And each person is either moving toward eternity with Christ, or is hardening away from Him - the thing is, you have been praying, and you can't see any change.
     But nothing on earth stays the same. It is changing, and continued prayer will bring the assurance that faith allows, even when nothing has been seen.
     You won't see the change until you see it! The spring buds on the tree don't begin when you see them, but they begin even before the seedling pushes up through the dirt.
     First it is a weak little tree, and then it is a sapling. It grows tall, and before you know it, you look upon the tree and all leaves are gone, and there is no possibility of bearing fruit. Suddenly the weather changes, and there they are! Little buds. And you see them after the previous season has ravished each branch!
     Making the changes - that's His business.
     Praying them through - that's ours!
