Hello, My Name is: Alpha & Omega

Alpha and Omega are the first and last letters of the alphabet. I think this is pretty straight forward. Our God is the beginning and the end. He is the creator, and the Lord of Lord. He was there from the very beginning.

One may ask, then who made God? Answer: No one. he was there since .. since ever. And he's there yesterday, today and tomorrow.

That fact I find is very important. Hebrews 13:8 states it.

⁸ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Our God is the same. He never changes, he will always and forever be loving us unconditionally and by our side. Always forgiving and knowing what is best for us. Forever guiding and providing for our needs. He will never leave you or forsake you. A friend who will always have your back.

Sounds too good to be true eh? I agree. Sometimes i fall short of his glory by sinning against him, and each time it boggles my mind that he still loves and cares for me. Why havent you turned away, why are you still here by my side after each and every time i've hurt and gone against you. But believe it. This is our God. The Alpha and Omega.

Be Still.

After doing "I Lift My Hands" for worship yesterday, i really found comfort in the song. And listening to it, and singing it was really reassuring and it really calms my heart and my soul. Here are a few of the words that really touch me.

"be still, there is a healer

his love is deeper than the sea.

his mercy it is unfailing

his arms, a fortress for the weak."

"i lift my hands to believe again,

he is my refuge, he is my strength,

as i pour out my heart, these things, i remember

you are faithful God, forever."

Be still, KNOWING that someone is there that loves you.

A fortress for those who are weak. Thats all of us. He is my refuge and he is my strength.

Refuge and Strength. Knowing someone so strong, powerful and almighty, someone that created the universe is by your side.

Faithful forever. That God is always there, never to abandon you or backstab you.

Someone about these lyrics, the passion, the melody is sticking to me and its a great reminder that there's nothing to worry about, nothing to be afraid, but just to remember God is good all day. Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.
