ALL things work together for good in the lives of those who Love God and are called according to His purpose, Amen.

Constrained by time, we see and experience what is now. We no longer feel/experience what once was, and we do not yet see what will be. Fact: Man was Created in The Image of God.

Noone has seen God except The Son.

We were made for eternity, when we contemplate angels do not have ‘age’! Art has at times depicted them as babes. That is incorrect depicted them as infants

Mark 16:5 answers this for us: “And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.”

Dear friends, the “young man” was actually an angel. Yes, Mark provides a window for us to peer into the angelic world. Angels can materialize in our dimension at will, and then disappear just as quickly and return to heaven. When they do appear, it is always in the form of mennever women as depicted in mythology, religion, and superstition!

As Mark indicates, although angels have existed for thousands of years, their appearance does not reflect their age. We grow older; they do not. Yet, like us, they wear clothes. In this case, “a long white garment.” Luke 24:4 calls them “shining garments.” Do they make their own clothing? Out of what do they make it? (These are mysterious questions we cannot answer at this time.)

Note how Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome were “affrighted” to see that angel in Mark 16:5; he very much resembled a man, and yet, something about his appearance made them afraid. Evidently, they knew it was an angel rather than an ordinary human being.

If we keep reading in Mark’s final chapter, we learn that the angel speaks in a human language—Hebrew?, Aramaic?, ?—that Jesus’ disciples can understand: “[6] And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him. [7] But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.” Angels are extremely intelligent creatures.

Here is one final little piece of information about angels. While not stated in Mark, we learn from Matthew 28:1-8, the parallel passage, that one angel rolled away the gigantic stone from Jesus’ tomb. Thus, the women could enter the cave and find it empty. Angels have incredible strength!

Sometimes ‘time’ blinds us to the fullness of God’s beauty. Very important to grasp; ‘time’ here on Earth, in the Solar system is measured by The Earth’s rotation around the Sun! How then is it measured in other galaxies? Have you ever peered up into the night sky on a clear night?

If stars are as the Sun independent light sources, in their own systems! What is Time? A very vast difference from what it is here in the Solar system. Complicating issues is the Big Bang fact. The universe began, scientists believe, with every speck of its energy jammed into a very tiny point. This extremely dense point exploded with unimaginable force, creating matter and propelling it outward to make the billions of galaxies of our vast universe. Astrophysicists dubbed this titanic explosion the Big Bang.

God and the supernatural are outside the realm of ‘time’! Time will cease

God promises beauty in its ‘Time,’ even if it’s not in the moment that we observe now.
