We Are Meant To Be With God Eternally

When God says that he will not leave us nor forsake us, he is talking from an eternal perspective.

Life is just a journey. Just because I feel lost at times during this journey, that does not mean I am actually lost or it does not mean that God has forsaken me.

God does mind making my journey through life uncomfortable if that helps me get to the right destination. In other words, if God made our life too comfortable on this earth, we would forget that this is just a journey and place our hope on this temporal world - which will disappoint us ultimately.

When God says that he will not forsake us, he is telling that we are his forever and ever; we are meant to be with him eternally; that all that we are going through on this earth will not and cannot not separate us from him forever; that suffering is not permanent because this world is not meant to last; that he is calling us to see things through his eyes.

Death, destruction and suffering that we see around causes hopelessness to those who eyes are set on things that are not meant to last; but to those whose eyes are set on the one who is meant to last, life on earth is just a preparation for life eternal.

 ALL EVENTS ON EARTH ARE MANAGED BY GOD FROM AN ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE; THIS EARTH IS NOT MEANT TO LAST BUT THE WILL OF GOD IS; JUST BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND DOES NOT MEAN IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
