Scripture Nugget 12.31.2016

“And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ‘See, the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them; he will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away.’ And the one who was seated on the throne said, ‘See, I am making all things new.’ Also he said, ‘Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” Revelation 21:3-5

 

God is with us! The question for us, is, will we be with Him? Will we be His people? Will we accept, live in, be changed by and live out the grace and mercy that is offered, that comes from being with God? Life, life abundant, life eternal full of joy, light and love; no more sorrow, no more pain, no more death. God is making a new thing, a new creation – heaven on earth. God transforms, will I , will you, will we step into this newness, be transformed. “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matt 28:19-20) “The one testifies to these things says, ‘Surely I am coming soon.’ Amen, Come, Lord Jesus!” (Rev 22:20)
