God's Love Will NEVER Change
Every generation says, “Things are not the same as when I was a child growing up.” Now, I can say the same thing. Things are not the same as when I was a child growing up.
When I was a child, we played: Kickball, Dodgeball, 4 Square, and Jacks. People's attitudes were different, and what’s considered right or acceptable by most people has also changed.
​
Things have changed, and they will continue to change each generation. One day you’ll be saying, “Things are not the same as when I was a child growing up.”
I want you to know, that no matter how things and people change, God will always be the same. God will always love you.
You should say out loud to yourself, “God loves me. God will always love me.”
