Forever? My forever? 16 years of age–forever? It feels like it’s been forever already. But what does forever really feel like? It’s timeless, just like You, Yahweh. It has no end. Eternal? Yeah, eternal! Your love transcends every second, every minute, every hour. You breathed your breath into my lungs and gave me life. You knew me before I even knew myself. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. Do I even know my 16, almost 17 self now? I don’t know, but I know you know. You’re omniscient: all knowing. 

I stumble, I fall; although I was a lamb to the slaughter, you saved me. I was the one apart from the 99 and you rescued me. You’re always there, Abba, always there. Always present, yeah always present. 

This life will pass by like the blink of an eye. Even when I return to the dirt, your love will always remain. You will always remain. 

The sun, moon, and stars will fade, but You are my light upon the hill. Always shining, forever radiant. 

Yahweh, You are my forever.
