The Mystery of God

And the temple was filled with the smoke of the glory of God, and with His power. And no one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels should be completed. Rev 15:8

In heaven, when God is in the FULLNESS of His glory and power, not even the immortal heavenly beings can be in His presence. He is God. For those of us who ponder heaven, it's easy to think that eternity could get boring. After all, it IS a long time, and we'll be just hanging out on clouds and playing harps and stuff.

We just don't have a concept.

God is our Father. He is the Creator. Creating is what He does. He loves His children. Loving is what He does. There is nothing like His love. Have you ever had a massage from your spouse? Did it get old? Did you reach a point where you just wanted to say, "Please... stop!". Ummm... no.

The mystery of our Father will always - even after 1,000,000,000 years - be a mystery. There are things He can do that we cannot. That will not change. He is big!

I have cats. The closet is off-limits to them. The mystery of the closet never waxes old. After 8 years, the closet is still the object of their fascination and they'll sneak a peek every chance they get. After 8 years! It's a closet! There's nothing in there but... the unknown.

I look forward to an eternity trying to 'figure out' my Father. Is that not what kids do?
