Gentle Pathways: The Unchanging God Who Invites Return

Passage:

Malachi 3:6-7a "I the Lord do not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from my decrees and have not kept them. Return to me, and I will return to you, says the Lord Almighty."

Reflection Theme:

This devotional explores God's unchanging character as the foundation for His persistent invitation to return to relationship, offering both comfort in His constancy and hope in His desire for restored intimacy.

Journaling Questions:

1. How does God's unchanging nature provide stability in your current circumstances?

2. Where might you have "turned away" from God's ways without realizing it?

3. What would "returning" to God look like in practical terms for your daily life?
