God said "I am that I am". He is the beginning and the end. Do you want to know more about him? Do you want all of your questions about God answered? I do. God has said in due time we will know all things. Stay tuned. God is not finished. He will have an eternity to answer our questions. :)

We humans can only comprehend time and space in the parameters we have come to know. We can "imagine" otherwise, but we know nothing else. We measure time. But God doesn't need to measure time. That's why he said "I am the beginning and the end". The bible tells us "Our times are in his hands". He told Jeremiah that he knew him even in his Mother's womb. In God's realm time is never measured. We know from scripture that a day with the Lord is as a thousand years. It gets really deep beyond that point and our wee brains are limited in how to accept that. The new testament scripture says, "For now it's as if we are looking through a dark glass, and we only understand parts of God's world. But in time we will see him face to face and all things will be made known. If you believe in him and that his word is truth, then you should expect to have answers someday when this limited fleshly brain of ours has been put away and replaced with heavenly bodies, that will be perfected and will comprehend the full depth and riches of God.
