Eternity.

Eternity is such a hard concept for me to grasp. Honestly, the idea of eternity kind of freaks me out. I know that it is going to be amazing because it is what God has ordained, but in my finitude, I only know things to have beginnings and endings. Nothing on Earth, nothing that is finite, lasts forever. This is all I know and God’s promise of eternity promises to shatter all my notions of what life is actually like. In my finitude, David’s rhetoric in Psalm 145 is somewhat of a foreign concept for me to attain. It is when I think about this that I remember that when David wrote this Psalm, he himself was a man just like me. He probably wrestled with this topic as I do, but He realized that the only prudent thing for someone who loves God is to praise and bless Him without ceasing. God created everything. Our logical response to God and His love is adoration and praise.
