Beginnings and endings

Via Dolorosa, Jerusalem

More often than not, when something looks like it's the absolute end, it is really the beginning. Think of the cross. The Roman officials applauded. The Jewish officials rejoiced. "Finally we got rid of him, that troublemaker! We're glad that's over." Yet three days later, He was alive again. What seemed like an ending was only the beginning. Chuck Swindoll

I am thinking of all those times during my teens when something happened and I thought it was the absolute end of the world, I couldn't imagine anything worse, but here I am, here we all are. We got through, survived the emotional turmoil that we never thought we would...

"He who sits on the throne said, Behold, I am making all things new." Revelation 21:5
