I =
stood with God on the edge of the world, and my hand was in His hand. I =
looked down the road of the past as it stretched away in the dim =
distance, till it was shrouded in the mists of time. And I knew it had =
no beginning and a little chill wind of fear blew about my =
head.
God=
asked, "Are you afraid?"
And=
I said, "Yes, because I cannot understand how there can be no =
beginning."
So =
God said, "Let us turn and face the other way." And I looked =
into glory and my heart rejoiced with joy unspeakable. And then my mind =
went ahead, a billion, billion years, and I knew there would be no end, =
and again that little chill wind of fear began to blow.
And=
God asked me again, "Are you afraid?"
And=
I answered, "A little, because I cannot understand how there can =
be no end."
So =
God asked me tenderly, "Are you afraid now, today, with your hand =
in Mine?"
And=
I looked up at Him and smiled and replied, "O my Father, No!" =
And=
God said, "Every day in eternity will be today."
