Ecclesiastes 3:11 (New Living Translation)
He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man’s heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
The writer of Ecclesiastes notes things that puzzle man, puzzle man all his life and never make sense. Here is one:
God lets man consider eternity.
That is nice of God, a true blessing. The other side of it is that we don’t understand eternity as God does. We can’t fathom limitless time stretching in both directions – the past and the future.
God is superior to us in many ways. This is just one of them. God understands eternity. In some ways, God is eternity. Man? We’re just here a little while, so we try to trust God, believe in God, live in the wonderful ways that God encourages us to live.
