There is no human measurement to test.
An inch, a foot, a yard, a mile? It grew
To depths, to heights, too vast to be assessed.

Time is unit for measurement
Of change and movement
Of matter in space

Time has no beginning and end
Time is infinite
Time exists due to physical characteristics of God
That's why
God is sometimes called Infinite
