This is a rich theme, which reminds me that I am a small creature, dependent on God for everything. I linked you to 2 Peter 3:8. This also refers back to Psalm 90 -- read the whole Psalm. It is a stunning meditation on our mortality and God's eternity. Psalm 39:5 Indeed, you have made my days as handbreadths, and my age is as nothing before You... There is also an interesting conversation between God and Job. With a series of beautiful questions, God points out the frailty of humanity. "Where is the way to the dwelling of light?.... Do you know it because you were born then, or because the number of your days is great?" (Job 38:19-21) The beginning of Hebrews really adds to this topic. Read, especially, 1:10-12. The whole idea of prophecy tells us something about time: that God can see His eternal plan, while all we see is our own little moment --- then God gives a glimpse of what the future will hold. I hope these thought help you. I've enjoyed reflecting on your question, and I look forward to learning from others. Thanks be to God. goodnight. |
