I could never quit understood what my grandmother was talking about at the time but, now her words ring in my ears. "Time goes faster the older you get". While I still think I'm in my 20's my life suggest otherwise. Life experiences, Children, laugh lines and more. Cherish your life, every moment and yes, even the difficult times as they build us strong like a cedar with deep roots. 4 Unexpected Endings *Can bring new beginnings The death of Jesus was very much unexpected to many – even those close to Him. They didn’t fully grip the idea that his time had come to fulfill the law of grace. I can identify with their grief, loosing someone they loved. As those of us who have lost a loved one, we know life goes on as we begin learning to live without them, carrying their influence within us. It doesn’t seem like a new beginning, but it is. Just as a move to a new town, a natural disaster, a shift in relationships, or a repentance of the heart; all leads to new beginnings in life. Through His death we have been given a new beginning, the Victory to live in Freedom from condemnation, a second chance. We have the assurance, the Hope of eternal life in Christ Jesus “We know that He came to fulfill the law not to abolish it “(Matt 5:17) John 17:4 Jesus said; I have brought you (the father) glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. While the work of grace is finished on the cross, He continues His work through us. To reach out to others and be His hands and feet here on earth. He will come back for us, and complete His Promise of eternal Life, that will be a new beginning for all of us. Meanwhile here on earth we will have Unexpected ending that will change our path in life and often our mindsets. We need to be aware and available to those changes. As with the death of Christ, the Father had a plan and a purpose with eternal rewards. Jesus’s unexpected endings gave us all a new beginning in Grace. Think on your Unexpected ending that Changed your life. Are you seeing the new Beginning’s? VJB Information taken from Christine's Unexpected Video series and my Personal Notes.
