Psalm 90:2 New International Version (NIV)
2 Before the mountains were born
or you brought forth the whole world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God
or you brought forth the whole world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God
God on the other hand, has been around forever. There has never been a time where He didn't exist. Before the mountains were created, before the earth spun on its axis, God was. He was not born and He will not die. He is the everlasting God. He lives forever. While this thought might have a tendency to short circuit the wiring in our brain, may we ask God by the power of His Holy Spirit to help us comprehend His everlasting nature.
I believe that the more we can meditate on the amazing vastness of our God and Father, we will begin to realize that He created us to experience this eternal life with Him! And the eternal life that He wants us to live is really not a time continuum or a destination, but a relationship. In Jesus' high priestly prayer in John 17:3, He describes eternal life like this...Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. (NIV)
May each one of us take great comfort in knowing that our Father is the everlasting God and He has called us to live an everlasting life with Him!
