The SHOE BOX
When I was a little girl my Aunt made a shadow box out of a shoe box for me to play with. She cut out a square at the end of one side of the box for viewing the contents. In that shadow box, she put a miniature house and a street and miniature trees in the front yard of the miniature house and the tiny little dolls who lived there. I had a tree swing. I could walk the tiny paper dolls down the street or push the baby in the stroller or swing them in the tree swing. I spent hours playing in this tiny world full on my imagination where the paper dolls lived and carried out their day.
To CREATOR GOD time is the size of that shadow box with all of the universe inside. There are mini homes and mini villages and all the years of time in that one shadow box the size of a shoe box. God created time to limit the rebellion so it could not continue without ceasing. Time is a boundary that holds Satan and his plan to a specific size. The rebellion cannot grow or expand or learn or change. The rebellion is finite and we are at its end now today. Creator GOD can hold everything in Lucifers rebellion and the creation in which he staged it in the palm of his hand. This is a testimony to the omnipotence and omnipresence of CREATOR GOD but also shows the size and importance of the rebellion in Heaven. The shadow box sits on a table in a corner in the throne room. Envision the shoe box sized universe in your mind sitting on a small table in Creator’s throne room. See the miniature village in the shoe box as you look through the hole cut in the end. CREATOR GOD with the “watchers” and “the Holy Ones” and the Cherubim and Seraphim and all the hosts of angels and stars and and every living being and the entire heavenly host watch us here in “time” as we go through our everyday lives. Time is a capsule the relative size of a shoe box. Time is part of creation just like you and me and the two trees in the midst of the garden. Time is finite and closed with distinct boundaries. Inside the shadowbox is the universe and all the galaxies and the stars and the firmament the dome.
Let that soak in for a minute or Selah.
The entirety of that great expanse so big that human beings with all our advanced science and information age are not even able to measure is relatively the size of a shoe box to CREATOR GOD. Our GOD is able to hold all of what is our daily experience and all of history and the expanses of the universe in the palm of his hand. Creator called it time.
How big is our GOD?
