Everlasting Love

To a little child, getting a time out for doing something that would endanger him, when he was not supposed to be doing it, may seem to him like an everlasting punishment. But from the loving parent's perspective, this nurturing discipline protects the child and helps him learn and grow into behavior which will keep him safe and sound.

And, so it is in the subject of our Bible lesson sermon which comes up twice a year – Everlasting Punishment – it's about the tender mercies that our Father-Mother God continually shows us. As our loving divine Parent, only nurturing love is given. What may seem to us like a punishment only appears from our own self-will that rebels at doing the right thing. Each child is loved and cherished by our Father-Mother God!
