Jesus: Bigger Than the Future

Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega (Revelation 22:13).

God tells the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10).

Daddy God is bigger than time itself.

This is beyond our conception, something that we cannot fathom or understand on our own.

AA invites adherents to "choose your own conception of God." That is a recipe for disaster!

We have to receive the truth about God as a revelation, based on God's Word. There is no scientific experiment, there is no amount of research to help us understanding these realities.

These eternal verities are too big for our limited understanding.

Resting in this broad revelation has helped me have greater peace now than ever before.

I realize now that no matter what is going on in our minds, in our hearts, faith, our spirit, sees bigger and better things.

We can understand that God is in control, based on how He has kept his promises, first giving us His Word--literally, His Son dying on the Cross for us, and from there we can trust that He is taking care of everything, even when events don't seem to be going our way.

For too long, I saw the future as bigger than God. I worried about the future, wondering if He would be on my side, taking care of me every step of the way.

I soon realized, as I meditated more on God's Word, that it made no sense to fear tomorrow. He is bigger than my tomorrows, and I can trust Him to be there for me tomorrow, because all of my sins have been paid for--past, present, future--have been paid for. I don't have to worry about God abandoning me or rejecting me if I fail.

I don't have to know what the future holds, because I know who holds the future, and He holds me!

"28And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 30I and my Father are one." (John 10:28-30)
