Promise

If you know me well enough you'd know that I have a habit of wanting to know what happens at the end. Of a movie, or a book. I want to know if people are reunited or left behind. Whether people lose or find themselves at the end. Every time I start reading a new book I find myself flipping to the end to find out what happens even before I know the characters. I like guessing the links, the intermediate chapters. This is what I find more exciting than not knowing the end. People often call it a killjoy. I can't help but love spoilers. I want to know every part of a movie if you ever start narrating it to me. The reason why I like knowing what happens next or at the end isn't because I want to feel like I'm in control but because it gives me hope. If people fall out in the next chapters I want to know that eventually even if they do not even things out they are better off in different ways. It makes me feel safe. This place is becoming increasingly chaotic and difficult to comprehend. But at the end God will come and gather all His people. He makes me feel safe.
