Semper Fi Deo

Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father who created all the lights in the heavens. He is always the same and never makes dark shadows by changing.
James 1:17 (CEV)

“Semper fi!” is a Latin phrase that means always faithful. We try our best to be that way. But we are humans. Sometimes, things change so often that all we can do is hang on and be always flexible.

Have you ever been frustrated by change? Your favorite teacher leaves the class to have a baby? Quarantines when you wanted to play sports? Your best friend's family is moving away when you had just signed up for a cool activity together?

Kids have to be flexible through a lot of changes we cannot control. But the one thing you can hold on to is the God who will never change. He always loves the same, always is close, always is powerful, always is faithful. That’s what today’s Scripture verse reminds us.

So, hang on to God through the hard times. Trust him when things don’t go the way you want. Talk to him on good days and bad. Get to know God by reading his words to you (the Bible) and learning about him. Semper fi Deo! Always be faithful to God.

SPIRITUAL FITNESS TRAINING

One way to stay faithful to God is to remember to pray at regular times. Set an alarm in the morning and the evening to say your prayers this week. The prayers don’t have to be fancy or long—just simple conversations with your friend, Jesus.

PRAY

Lord, it seems like things are always changing around me. Thank you for always staying faithful and true.

KEEP IT GOING
