Tuesday’s Thoughts on Scripture comes from Revelation chapter 1, verse 8: “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty. (NRSV)
From A to Z - beginning to end - everlasting to everlasting. God always was, is now, and always will be. What a blessing that the same God who created the world, sent Jesus, brought my parents and grandparents to this world, and comforted me when they passed, will comfort and be with me in whatever comes. Whenever it comes. And that God is not simply any god, but is the Almighty. The Omnipotent, who knows all and is in all. Who is Supreme. In that understanding is not only comfort, but promise, and Who we can rely on, no matter what.
Perhaps the rest of the book of Revelation contains images that concern you. Remember the promise and how the book begins - God is with us. That is a promise to hang onto and remind ourselves of every single day!
Blessings. And prayers.
