"High and lofty one who inhabits eternity, whose name is holy. . ."
How can I comprehend this concept? What is eternity to one whose physically-centered being is so time-oriented? I'm not sure it is possible for me to grasp the entire meaning of what it is to inhabit (or live in) eternity. How is it possible to know past, present, future, and all of the possibilities in between at once? (Even the last word of that question is time-oriented.) Yet, this is who God is--the one who inhabits eternity--in fact, the One in whom eternity resides. This is too great and wonderful a concept for my finite mind to grasp. It is difficult sometimes to accept, but I believe!!!!
How will my life reflect my belief--my understanding--that God inhabits eternity? I think my life must begin to take on a perspective that realizes this is not all there is. There is more--much more--that only my spiritual being is able to abide in. Therefore, I must honor and nurture that spiritual being--I must continually dwell in the presence of God as I go about the passage through time on this earth.
Most Holy and eternal God, keep me always in your presence. Draw me closer to you with each passing day of this sojourn in time.
