🧡

All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time,
and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen (Jude 1:25; NLT).

1. Do not fear eternity;
You’re living in it now:

2. One with God
Before your birth,

3. One with him
Whilst here on earth,

4. One with him
At your last breath,

5. One in bliss,
Beyond your death.

6. So never fear eternity:
You’re living in it now!

  • I thought Ruth is brave tackling Eternity, then I read it! Oh my goodness, shame on me for thinking that. You have perfectly presented the reality of Eternity in these words! The words “6. So never fear eternity: You’re living in it now!” are so powerful, what a comfort. God bless you Ruth.

    • Gosh! I’ve never received so much undeserved praise in all my life, Alan. If it’s spoken to you, even just the tiniest bit, that makes it all worthwhile. May God bless and strengthen you both today, through Jesus’ precious name XXXXX
