Our beginning in the New Year

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. - Genesis 1:1

We are creatures of the of the earth. Yes, we are much more than that, but occasionally we need to be reminded of that! We can’t truly understand existence before time, yet before the beginning of time as we know it, God existed - he has revealed himself as “I AM”, the one who was and who is and who is to come.

Before there was an ordered universe to provide the basis of our existence, God is “I Am.” He had existence before, beyond, and without our created universe. We can’t even truly comprehend this in its entirety. That’s why every new beginning - whether it is a day, a week, a year, or a millennium - should begin with God.

He alone is the ultimate Genesis, our beginning. 

No more

“The Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command” - 1 Thes. 4:16
Have you ever wondered what that command will be? It will be the inaugural word of heaven. I I could very well be wrong, but I think the command that puts an end to the pains of the earth and initiates the joys of heaven will be two words: “No More.”

No more loneliness. No more tears. No more death. No more sadness. No more crying. No more pain.

What kind of God do we serve?

He is completely good.

He is constantly good.

He is unchangeably good.

God will never not be good.

God could never be less than good.

Everything he does is good.

New Year Calendar.

Are you just too busy lately? 

Ask God to give you wisdom for your daily scheduling. Remember: He is in charge, and you ar following His all-encompassing lead. Place your hand over your daily to-do list or calendar and give it over to God.
