1In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 ESV
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1 ESV
Before anything existed, there was God. Before you or me. Before the t-rex. Even before dirt. God existed.
He existed before cancer. Before divorce. Before unemployment. His power is transcendent and eternal.
For me knowing this provides me with not only a sense of calm but also assurance. God has always been and will always be. There is nothing that surprises Him. Nothing comes as a shock to God.
His eternal past and eternal future existence is no match for our temporary worries, challenges, and heartache.
He was/is/will be. Never sleeping. Never tired or distracted. Spend some time today marveling at that fact and letting that knowledge wash over you.
