Established in Eternity


Forever, O LORD, your word
is firmly fixed in the heavens.
Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
you have established the earth, and it stands fast.
(Psalm 119:89-90 ESV)

Notice the non-English order of words here. The first word is "Forever", eternal.  Why do we make such a big deal about spending time in God's Word? It establishes us in eternity. It anchors us in the Almighty. It gives us something most dependable to stand on, hold onto, look to, and trust. Nothing else lasts like that: jobs, homes, even the most dear of human relationships can come to an end. But God is eternal, established, enduring.  So, how can I even endure today, with all of its challenges, struggles and uncertainties? By starting it here, with Him, in His Word.  Let's get Established.
