So everything's made out of nothing, including us, and everything will go back to nothing.
But we won't. For we are destined, if we choose it, to spend eternity with God.
So we will never return to nothingness.
But that means that we are no longer nothing.
I'm suddenly reminded that God said, "Let us make man in our own image," and I wonder if that means that man is to be something, man is to have true substance, when everything else will simply be nothing held together until it has served its purpose, when it will return to nothingness.
God gave nothingness substance. He breathed life into us. I don't want to say anything that's theologically incorrect, but that seems as if God has in some way gifted Himself to mankind, giving us His substance, not so that we are God, but so that God resides in us and thereby gives our existence true substance, so that we, who were once nothingness, now have substance and can reside eternally with Him.
I'm praying for you!
