Thought for the day:
In the beginning,
Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
They will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment.
You will roll them up like a robe;
like a garment, they will be changed.
But you remain the same,
and your years will never end.
Hebrews 10:11-12
