God has now revealed to us his mysterious will regarding Christ - which is to fulfill his own good plan.

And this is the plan:

At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ - everything in heaven and on earth. 

Ephesians 1:9-10 NLT

Ever wonder what God is up to?

Paul gives us a clue here, well, more than a clue, this is what God is up to, a joining together, a uniting of heaven and earth.

Not heaven without earth, but whatever the barriers are, the separation is between heaven and earth, it will be gone, and there'll be one authority: Jesus.

The empires of people, the power structures we strive for and build that create injustice, that place some higher than others, that hoard resources, selfishness, all the ugly me stuff, will be gone.

At the right time.

We can all say "if it was up to me..." But that's just me wanting to exercise power for what may be good reasons, but from my perspective. 

Try as I might, I can't really see from God's perspective.

But we do get a glimpse of God's plan and our hope can rest in this.

Heaven and Earth will be somehow brought together in Jesus.
