The Unchanging Love and Compassion of Christ
By A. W. Tozer
 

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the
form of a servant,and was made in the likeness of men.
                                                                   -  -  Philippians 2:7

Because change is everywhere around us at all times
on this earth and among human beings, it is difficult for
us to grasp the eternal and unchanging nature and
person of Jesus Christ.

Nothing about our Lord Jesus Christ has changed
down to this very hour. His love has not changed. His
compassionate understanding of us has not changed.
His interest in us and His purposes for us have not
changed.

He is Jesus Christ, our Lord.  He is the very same Jesus.
Even though He has been raised from the dead and seated
at the right hand of the Majesty in the heavens, and made
Head over all things to the Church, His love for us remains
unchanged.

It is hard for us to accept the majestic simplicity of this
constant, wonder-working Jesus.   We are used to getting
things changed so that they are always bigger and better!

He is Jesus, easier to approach than the humblest
friend you ever had!  He is the sun that shines upon us,
He is the star of our night.  He is the giver of our life and
the rock of our hope.  He is our safety and our future.
He is our righteousness, our sanctification,
our inheritance.

You will find that He is all of this in that instant that
you move your heart towards Him in faith!  This is the
journey to Jesus that must be made in the depths of the
heart and being.  This is a journey where feet do not
count!
