For this God is our God for ever and ever:

he will be our guide even unto death.

Psalms 48:14

Forever, O Lord

Our sense of time seems so solidified and somewhat daunting, as if tomorrow were a persistent creature always about to pounce yet never appearing. So often we see 10 years as a long inconceivable time frame, casting a huge shadow, because 10 leads to 20, 20 to 50, 50 to 100.

And then time ends.....or so we think, and act, always rushing.

I love how God doesn't view time how we do.

God sees a day and the length of that unit is irrelevant, it might have been a 1,000 years.

God sees a 1,000 years, and it might have been only a day.

I wonder what God sees when He looks at a week, or an hour, or even a minuet. Yet, however small, He sees ever last second.

Because of this God can promise forever.

"I know that, whatsoever God doeth,

it shall be for ever:

nothing can be put to it,

nor any thing taken from it:"Ecc 3:14

~World Without End~

"...ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end." Isaiah 45:17

"...unto Him be glory...by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."Ephesians 3:21

Twice in the KJV, the phrase "world without end" appears. In Ephesians, it is the Greek word αἰών repeated twice, the double use of this word occurs 21 other times in the New Testament, mainly translated as "ever and ever". (Usually used with the preposition for and in reference to God's glory.)

Our English word "eon" or properly "aeon" comes from a direct transliteration of Greek word, and is translated "age".

"Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen."
