EARTHBORN NOT EARTHBOUND

As is every living thing on our shared planet I am earthborn. Scripture states: “For dust you are,And to dust you shall return”, but that is not the full picture. The biblical depiction of human life neither originates on earth nor is bound to its elements or limitations. The Apostle Paul proclaims: “He chose us IN HIM before the foundation of the world” (which means He knew us before we were made). Also, we are told He: “raised US UP TOGETHER”, and “MADE US SIT TOGETHER in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus”. These are space and time mind-twisters for those of us locked into linear time and measured space as they exist in this world, but not for the “Alpha and Omega”, the great “I AM”. So as it turns out, I am earthborn, but not earthbound! “O LORD my God, when I in awesome wonder, consider all…then sings my soul, “HOW GREAT THOU ART, HOW GREAT THOU ART!”
