Here, Now

Time is a pretty cool thing. Our heavenly Father lives in eternity where there is no beginning, middle or end. It’s all happening at once. When He made men, He knew eternity would blow our limited minds, so He created this thing called time.

See, God designed time for our protection, so we don’t get overwhelmed. God knew we could only handle life in 24-hour chunks. “. . And that was the morning and the evening of the first day.” Genesis 1:5  See, God even tells us at the end of each day of creation, that He did it in literal 24-hour days, but that’s not the point here.

The point is, for us, time is a reality. For Father God, it’s relative – and that’s a good thing. If you are going after spiritual and relational upgrade, the Bible says “seek and you shall find.” It doesn’t say how long that will take.

For some of us who are easily sidetracked, it can take a long time. But get this: God doesn’t care if it takes a long time for you to find the things you are searching for and the identity He has for you. He didn’t create it to be found all at once. He loves the time you spend with Him in the process of getting to the next level!

Yes, it’s a process, and He made it that way. He gave us time so that everything doesn’t happen at once and freak us out. Time is a safe place for the redemptive work of Jesus where the sins of our present can be buried in the past.
