I am the alpha and the omega
This wonderful verse is taken
from the Holy Bible. This above verse means that God is the beginning
and the end. Yes, there can be two interpretations for the above quote.
To start with, God is the creator of everything in the world and
second everything begins and ends with God. Today we find equal amount
of Godly and ungodly people. Disappointments, fear and doubt are
certain situations that pull people away from God. Even then he
understands us. But have we taken any instance to thank God for the
wonderful gifts that he has showered on us? Most probably the answer
will be No. when we take a second to deem about how many times we have
thanked god rather than complained about the hardships we face, the
balance will highly tend towards the pessimistic side. So why does this
biasness happen? Is it because we underrate the power of god or is it
we take his love for granted? Whatsoever it may be, let’s never forget,
he is the one who formed us carefully in our mother’s womb. Nothing
enters or exits our life without his control.
God’s love is always unconditional,
he comes to us, where we live and loves us as you are. Even if we fail
to appreciate him for all the bounties, or ignore him in time of
happiness, there are instances where we hold him responsible for the
painful situation we are facing in our life. Whatever may be our
pretexts he still considers us his loving child, nothing can ever
separate us from his love. God doesn’t owe us anything yet in his
grace; he still gives us good things. He sees the perils that are in
our path that we cannot see. He guides and speaks to us in mercy and
grace, he mends us up to meet the dangers and be prepared to receive the
things we could not wisely use. God is omnipotent and omnipresent,
having a close watch on each one of us. So let’s take it as our delight
to thank god for each and every blessing. Not by force or as an
obligation but out of adoration for him. Thanking God persuades him
work more wonders in our life. We shall steer safely through every
storm, so long if our heart is right, our intention fervent and our
trust fixed on God. So at this tender age, let’s make it a point to
thank God for the past wonderful memories, present second we live, for
the beautiful future ahead and yet many more. Love him, adore him,
worship him and humbly say God thank you for yesterday, today and for ever and ever.
