Some things in life may change, and some things stay the same

How quickly do we forget Your promises.

I'm told that in an instant on the night prior, everything changed.

I saw
Despair
Fear
Sorrow
Anger
Humor employed as a coping mechanism
Hope
and Joy.

How quickly do we forget Your promises.

Some act as if the world has ended, others look upon it as a new beginning.

Then why does everything still feel the same?

People are still hungry
People are still dying
People are still lost
People are still in desperate need of Christ

How quickly do we forget Your promises.

there's some real spiritual truth in this post, and I'm also detecting a bittersweet combination of melancholy and hope... i'd love to hear the inspiration for this post
