Alpha and Omega

Well, today was my last day of Korean language class.  We took pictures, and watched K-pop music videos, and laughed, and cried - but only a little.  It's been a wonderful past few weeks.  I can't believe it's coming to an end.  There are so many places and people I have to say goodbye to before I leave for my school next week.  So many things I still have to do.  It's bittersweet, to say the least.

I remember before I got here, a 6 week orientation seemed an eternity.  After I arrived, it seemed even longer.  But now it's basically over.  What I find comforting in times like these is that God promises to be around from the beginning, until the end - and beyond.

He is the Alpha and Omega.  He sees us wherever we are, and takes care of us regardless of where we are.  Time does not constrain Him.  For someone who is constantly making plans, writing dates down, and jotting to-do lists, the thought of an entity who does not run by the clock is difficult for me to fathom.  But it's so comforting, too.  To know that God does not play by my rules - and limitations - is both scary and comforting.  It's scary because I don't understand Him.....but it's comforting to know that He completely understands me.  And He's bigger than time, and will take care of me regardless.


Revelation 22:12-13
    12 “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
