Union Chapel

Here we are at the beginning of another year, 2012 is here, it only seems a very short while since we had all the hoo ha regarding computers and the supposed imminent collapse of everything as we new it as we came into the new millennium. Now here we are another twelve years on.

When I was a boy back in the early 1950’s I used to enjoy reading comics and the ‘Beano’ and ‘Dandy’ were my favourites. My elder brother being four years older than me was much more grown up and read the ‘Eagle’. It was a bit beyond me as a boy of just five or six, but when he had finished reading his comic I would look at some of it, very especially the stories of Dan Dare. These were stories of the future, space men, Martians and all manner of futuristic contraptions. I remember thinking then about how fantastic it would be to live in those future times, how much better life would be, how much more exciting it would be.

Well now we do live in those times, here we are, nearly 60 years on, the world has certainly changed. In many ways life is better, certainly in regard to our standard of living and things are, in general, easier for us than perhaps they were for our parents. And in lots of ways we live in very exciting times, though sometimes rather scarily so. The speed of change is so very fast and seems to increase with each passing year, and maybe for the younger folk that kind of change is great, but for most of us as we get older it seems to change just a little too much and far too quickly for us to be able to really keep up.

Looking back to those comics and stories of future days and my own dreams of what the coming tomorrows might bring, I doubt if anything much is as they portrayed, or as I thought it might be.

With all the changes and advances that have come over these years, one of the few things that remain the same is mankind, we in reality are as we were then, with the same worries, anxieties, pains and hurts, with the same needs of love and acceptance, and we are still in need of the Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amidst all the changes that have been He also remains the same and is still calling you to put your trust in Him, He who never changes.

Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Pastor John Schofield
