Look Up


Today,, after reading the horrendous signs of the end of the age, we read about our future home. Forever and ever is a long time. Let’s make our short journeys on earth count for our Lord. For more on heaven, see the full chapters of Revelation 21 and 22.

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy city, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people and God Himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”  Revelation 21:1-4

     A new heaven and a new earth. Can you imagine the earth redeemed as well as us? No more tears or crying or mourning or pain? Forever? Hang onto the hope of eternity. Jesus promises us we will be with Him. He is our Savior and He will be the lamp of heaven. Forever.

“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” John 14;3

     Someday soon, we will be with Jesus and He is preparing a place for me and for you! It will be made perfectly and give us just what we need.

Father,

Thank You for hope in a dark world. Your light exposes darkness and the world does not want to hear. We pray the Gospel of grace will be believed by many and we can dwell with You forever.

In Jesus name,

Amen
