A Forgotten Yesterday, An Unborn Tomorrow

"The Lord searcheth all hearts and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee" (1 Chronicles 28:9)

If you trace the word everlasting in the Hebrew language, you will find that it can mean "time out of mind," or it can mean "always," or it can mean "to the vanishing point." It can also mean "to the beginningless past".

From everlasting to everlasting, God is God! From the beginningless past to the endless future, God is God! That is what the Holy Spirit says about the person and the eternal nature of God.

Now, if you have one of those mousetrap minds - open and shut - you will dismiss it and leave it, or tuck it away in your memory among the unused items in the attic of your soul.

But if the Holy Spirit i allowed to bring His radiance to it, there can be great meaning; for we are between the everlasting vanishing point of a forgotten yesterday and the equally everlasting vanishing point of an unborn tomorrow.

If you accept the gospel of Jesus Christ, you will have all the power of God back of you to defend you; all the will of God on your side; all the justice and righteousness of God pledged to your defense, as well as all the infinite love and mercy of God to welcome and bless you.
