Beautiful
Read Revelation 21.1-2
“.. I saw the Holy City .. coming down out of heaven from God ..” (Rev.21.2)
As the sight of the finishing line spurs the athlete on, so a glimpse of where it’s all going to end can energise you in your present struggles. The storms will all be past: and the life, and love, for which you’ve longed will at last be fully yours!
What’s meant by the statement that “there was no longer any sea”?
Why do the two pictures of (a) the city and (b) the bride help you understand something of what ‘a new heaven and a new earth will be like?
Prayer: I’m so looking forward to things being finally righted by You, Lord! Help me to live such a holy and godly life that I speed the coming of that day (2 Pet.3.11-12)
