I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty. – Revelation 1:8 (NIV)
Our lives are busy. As a result, we’ve often began to rely on ourselves. Many times we think that if we just work hard, get good grades, go to a good college, or something like that we will find success in our lives. And it’s true, you can get far with hard work. But here’s the catch: working hard, doing good things, and anything else you try in your own strength will not bring you the fulfillment you seek.
You will be more fulfilled as you spend time with God. Today’s verse says that God is the Alpha and Omega. Those are the first and last letters in the Greek alphabet. What is God saying by that? He’s saying, I’m the first, I’m the last, and I’m everything in between.
What does that mean for your life? Well, it means that God can bring fulfillment to every minute of your life. If you’re seeking for meaning, God can be your purpose. If you seek more wisdom, God can fill that void. Whatever it is that you truly need from God, He is there to help you and fill that need.
God wants to be your first and last. He wants to help you in every area of your life. So go to Him. Seek Him, let Him fill you and help you in every way. Let God be your all in all.
