In Sundays service we talked about the promises made to Gods people. And a word was thrown out that I cannot wrap my head around. Forever.
When I first started coming to Gracelife I couldn’t understand Grace. I can’t say I understand it now, but I have learned to accept it. But forever? That is beyond my comprehension. Because this life is conditional. It is circumstantial. People only stay as long as you are meeting their needs. And eventually, everyone leaves.
That is what the enemy told me as I was standing outside the gym talking to my new sponsor. She was telling me it’s not about the fear but more so a lack of trust. And I heard clearly, “how can you trust, everyone leaves.”
No, not everyone. Because Grace is not based on what I have done but on who He is. And so His promise of forever is the same. And I realized that I have been counting God out even before He began. I have based my understanding on my human experience. And this is beyond that. It is beyond anything I could ever imagine. And I am beyond ready to have a life I couldn’t even dream about. And a forever too.
