How it ends

No one can rightly say how it all ends. It is possible, and I conceed that one,may guess rightly, but nothing is set in stone.

We all like finite things.

We think in terms that we can understand. A beginning and an end, and yet we teach that such ideas have no right to effect us. We neither begin nor end.

Though, even our eternal lives are full of smaller units called eras that can be defined.

But, tonight's viewing reminded,me that our expectations are just that. A good friend helped me more than he will ever know or suspect when he said, "life can change on a dime." My old Volvo SW suprised people because it looked like a tank, but handled very well. It could turn on a dime.

King David had to be depressed to eventually realize that his greed ruined his eternal life, it was never expected, or that his son by means of Urriah's wife would one day lead to such a regal bloodline!

What must happen will happen. When Jesus entered Jerusalem he was asked to calm his followers who shouted praises and tossed olive branches in his path. He just said something like, "what's the point. If I quiet them the rocks will call out." It is just one of many examples that prove the Lord will not have his plans frustrated.
