Everlasting Arms

Deuteronomy 33:26-29

27 The eternal God is your refuge,
and underneath are the everlasting arms.
He will drive out your enemy before you,
saying, 'Destroy him!'

Bee's Thoughts:

Recently I was pondering on a BGR Question as a result of what somebody said. Doesn't what we experience physically now on earth has some signifcance on what is to come in the spirtiual realm as well?

Example, the church is a representation of the Bride of Christ; the love between a husband and wife is the representation of the love relationship between Christians and Christ too. Christians are constantly told to love God and others. If we can find fulfillment in the love on earth with our loved ones, how much more fulfilment we will have when we meet our beloved Jesus one day?

The speaker said yesterday, during our church service, that "the only thing we can bring with us when we die is relationship". How profound! I never thought of that before. That's the reason God created humans... to have a relationship. So God wants us to have proper and healthy relationship while we are on earth to have a foretaste of what is to come, that is far better.

Whenever I feel weak and in need of support I always hope I could have an arm to lean on, to hold me so I won't fall. Just like what I wrote in my poem "I Will Run With You", I see the arms of support when I needed it most. My ability to feel such support helps me understand and feel God's "everlasting arms" (v27) .


Dear Jesus,
I thank You for people whom You have brought to my life to support me when I am down. Though such earthly relationship may not last, it gives me a gleam of the everlasting relationship of love I can have with You. You are my constant and "everlasting arms". Let me extend my arms to those whom You have placed in my life too. Amen.
