VERSE FOR TODAY: "Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed us he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book' (Revevation 22:7, New International Version).
HYMN FOR TODAY: " When We All Get Heaven'
It was a long, hard journey. There were patches of sunlight along the way, but much of the road was dark. There were pitfalls, and soon there were bruises and scars. Almost crippled now the traveler trudged on. And with the last faltering step he crossed the threshold and uttered words on whispered joy: "Home. . .home
. . .I'm finally home!"
Joy flooded over his bruised body, bringing healing and overwhelming peace. All of the struggles, all of the pain had vanished in the joy of the moment. He was finally home.
Do you sometimes feel like this weary traveler? The goal of Heaven is before us, but the way becomes cloudy. Sometimes we get so confused that we even wonder if we're on the right path. That's when we need to reach up and take the hand of our Savior, because He will lead us home.
No more pain! No more suffering! No more death! No more night! When we get to our heavenly home, our joy will be unspeakable. The praise will never end. Healing will take place, and the wounds will be no more.
Jesus, who was wounded for our sins, will stand before us and welcome us home. Then we can shout in joyful praise, "Home! I'm finally home!"
PRAYER THOUGHTS: Jesus, we can hardly wait to see Your face.plesse, help us not to keep this promise of Joy to ourselves,but to share it boldly. Thank You for Your gift of Salvation and hope of eternity with You. Maranatha, Lord Jesus! Amen.
