Romans 11:33
Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!
How could we ever truly know the vastness of our Creator? The One who has no creator. God was not born and yet He is and He has always been! He is the God Who was and is and is to come. Wow, the very existence of Almighty God is enough to blow the mind. He just is! When Moses ask Him at the burning bush, "Who shall I say has sent me?" God answered," I AM."(Exodus 3:13-14) The great I AM! To know God is to know He has always been. His existence is so deep that He is unsearchable. He tells the prophet Isaiah, "His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts." His ways are higher than our ways.(Isaiah 55:8-9) We will never fully grasp God's ways but we can certainly be a student of His higher ways. His ways are past finding out but God still gives a desire to try. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, "He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end." He has put eternity in our hearts. We are born with eternity resinating within our very heart. There is depth even in our own being that seems out of our grasp. This can be explained by the fact that we are created in the image of our eternal Father. Genesis 1:27 says, "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them." We can not at this point in our walk with Christ possibly understand the depth and riches of eternal life. However, He has placed it in us and has even given us the curiosity to seek out this treasure. He has told us about it in His word and given us glimpses of it by way of His Holy Spirit. 1Corinthians 2:9-10 says, "But as it is written:"Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him. But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God." Our eyes have not seen, our ears have not heard, but eternity has been revealed to us through God's Holy spirit. Jesus said that we are blessed because we believe and have not yet seen. We are blessed because God is revealing Himself to us through the work of His Holy Spirit. This is better than sight it is the indwelling of God Himself! There will come a day when our faith will end in sight we will see eternity! We will hear, taste, touch and smell eternity! Life will become more lifelike than we could have ever known while living on this earth. We will experience eternity! But until that day we must pray, seek and knock! (Matthew 7:7) We must be diligent, tenacious and unfailing. We need to follow the curiosity that has been placed in us. The deep things of God are to be sought out. To know Him is to know eternity. To know Him is to know life and love in their deepest sense. He is preparing us for eternity with Him. To live forever is to sit at His feet for a thousand years only to realize time has no place in Heaven. It is to sing praises to God and know that there are no deadlines in the throne room of the ALmighty. To live in eternity with Jesus is to live forever and never completely know every thing about Him. He is truly King of kings!
