Forever
"I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him." Ecclesiastes 3:14
It is difficult for me to totally comprehend the full impact of the word "forever." In an ever changing world, there just isn't much of anything that lasts through decades or even a lifetime. Yet, all through the Bible I keep bumping into this little word with an amazing scope . It almost always is used to describe something relating to the character and reliability of God. I sometimes wonder at God's purposes, but I never have to question the durability of what He does. For myself, I often do things that later I go back to undo, redo, or change entirely. Not God. His ways are absolutely perfect, therefore forever is okay. I praise God that He is the Eternal God, that what He does is forever. Nothing, not even cancer or death, can add or take away from that awesome truth.
I'm praising God also for a blessed Thanksgiving week filled with many wonderful times together with family and friends. Looking ahead, Malcom will have another chemo treatment beginning either Tuesday or Wednesday.
