Good Thursday morning! The days are for the most part much warmer than we have seen this winter. Spring is close to its opening day. Big moments in Isaiah came up last night in our Bible study and a big moment in Daniel came up this morning. It is amazing that Jesus' life was covered so accurately in Isaiah. We also noted last night how that Isaiah wrote in the past tense about events that would happen about 700 years later than his lifetime. How can that be? Those events had already happened in God's plan. Jesus' saving of the sinners had already gone down in the books. As we like to say: signed, sealed, and delivered. We see things poorly right now as Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 13. However, God sees the great events that we have yet to arrive at as fully accomplished. When Jesus noted to the world that, "It is finished" on the cross, He meant just that. To us with our limited view there is much yet to happen in this world and in our lives. To Jesus with His eternal view, we are already home with Him. To my understanding, that is God telling us that one morning we will wake up in Heaven with Him as though from a long and difficult dream. No more sorrows and no more pain, only the eternal joy of Jesus in our hearts. Look forward to that day and spread the Good News to the world!
God bless you all!
