Beginnings

You know what's wonderful about your story, my story, and God's story? It is always just beginning. That's the first word in the Torah, reh-shoh-nee, Beginning. In the beginning, God. In the beginning, you and I. God is not about the past, he is not so much about the future. He is about the eternal now. It doesn't matter where your journey has lead, because it's always just beginning.

Do you remember that old saying, Today is the first day of the rest of your life." It is not about where you have been, and it is not so much about where you are going. It is about starting. Read the book of Genesis from this perspective: God is always just beginning. So it is with you and I. The journey is always new, always fresh, always just beginning. doesn't that give you hope. It certainly does for me. I have indeed rounded the horn, and that is not the end of the story. Who knows where it will lead me. The important thing is that today is the day of new beginnings.
