Eternity

Spirit & Truth

Eternity
“Are you not from eternity, O my holy and immortal God?” Habakkuk 1.12

Eternity isn’t something that begins at point A and just never quite reaches point Z. Eternity is like a circle…it has no beginning and no ending. It is infinite is-ness, all-ness. It not only lasts forever, it is from forever. Eternity is the All-in-all, perfect Wholeness, Infinity. It is divine. And we are part of It. We are made in the divine (infinite, eternal) image, which means we not only always will be, but we’ve always been! If there is a beginning, there is an end. But eternity has no ending, which means it had no beginning. And we are eternal beings because we are one with Eternity Itself. Isn’t this one of the messages of Eastertide?

I am one of the perfect ways Eternity is expressing Itself!
