I’m thinking today

about the beyond

 

The beyond of what you did, Jesus,

from what I read about You

 

For the Bible says that the world

wouldn’t be able to contain

 

all the books written

 

if they were filled

with everything you did

 

And I long to glimpse

into that beyond

 

To see all the lives touched

all the words said

all the love given

the mercy

the miracles

 

I just want to know more of You

 

And I long to dive

into all those books that weren’t written

 

The beyond is unknown

 

But I am blessed

 

With a God who continues

to make Yourself known to me

 

In countless ways

 

And You’ve given us all the written Words

that are needed

 

for now

 

But one day I’ll know in glory

about that beyond

Jesus also did many other things. If they were all written down, I suppose the whole world could not contain the books that would be written.

– John 21:25 (NLT)

 

By His divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know Him, the one who called us to Himself by means of His marvelous glory and excellence.

– 2 Peter 1:3 (NLT)

 

Don’t suppose for a minute that I have come to demolish the Scriptures—either God’s Law or the Prophets. I’m not here to demolish but to complete. I am going to put it all together, pull it all together in a vast panorama. God’s Law is more real and lasting than the stars in the sky and the ground at your feet. Long after stars burn out and earth wears out, God’s Law will be alive and working.

– Matthew 5:17, 18 (MSG)
