If God is the beginning and the end. If He summons each new generation from the beginning of time. If He gives man victory over many nations. Then why do we spend the middle focused so much on ourselves? Why is it so easy to place God far down on our priority list? Pursuing God isn’t a burden. It isn’t a drudgery. It isn’t difficult. It’s a mindset. A way of life. When you determine in your heart Who it is you’re going to serve, life makes more sense. It makes a purpose out of a seemingly meaningless existence. Most importantly, it’s the most rewarding thing you’ll ever do. The daily relationship with our Creator fulfills the greatest desire in our hearts, for He has placed eternity there. There’s no other avenue that makes a man whole than to convene with the Almighty. He is the Beginning and the End. Why not be consistent and spend the middle pursuing Him?
“Who has stirred up this king from the east, rightly calling him to God’s service?Who gives this man victory over many nations and permits him to trample their kings underfoot? With his sword, he reduces armies to dust. With his bow, he scatters them like chaff before the wind.3 He chases them away and goes on safely, though he is walking over unfamiliar ground.4 Who has done such mighty deeds, summoning each new generation from the beginning of time? It is I, the Lord, the First and the Last. I alone am He.”
Isaiah 41:2-4
