As I sit this morning, the sun is rising brightly in the sky, day is dawning and it looks to be a beautiful spring day in CT. Bright blue sky, a few wispy clouds, invigorating temperatures… oh, what a day!
Mornings like today refresh and energize me.
Reading this chapter blessed and energized my spirit just like the beautiful dawn refreshed and energized my body and mind. I am in awe as I ponder the opening verses:
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.
Seeing God face to face…
No light needed because God Himself provides the light…
No longer any curse…
Oh what joy fills my soul! All this for those who follow Jesus! I just basked in the glow of this word from the Lord.
O, God, what a glorious gift and lift this morning’s Word was from You. My soul feels lighter. To have this amazing glimpse of my future home, I am back to singing what I sang yesterday…
O, O Praise Him, O, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia!
