"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."
Revelation 1:8
Alpha and Omega. They are the first and last letters of the Greek Alphabet, so translated to English Jesus is A and Z. He is the Beginning and the End. The One who was at the beginning of your life will also be at the end. He is waiting for us there, yet simultaneously right with us today. That's the amazing infinite and eternal nature of Jesus!! He was in the beginning as Creator and will be at the end of times as Judge. He is part of and in everything.
This is one of the many attributes that allowed Him to die for the sins of everyone in the world. Since He is eternal and infinite, He is not bound by time. He could pay the price of our sins, the price being death, 2000 years before we were even born. It is awesome how God reveals His plan and how intricate it really was.

What words of praise can you offer Him for revealing such completeness about Himself? In this scripture, He also reveals His eternal nature, which intertwines with His infinite nature of beginning and end. Does it comfort you that He is the beginning and the end? How has your praise for Him increased this Advent season?
In His Love,
A
