Manna in the Morning

We are thinking about heaven this week. In the 21st chapter of Revelation, John is privileged to tell us some of the things that WILL NOT be a part of heaven. He writes that “there will be no more sea.” Ancient feelings toward the sea was one of uncertainty and sometimes even a symbol evil forces. None of that will be a part of heaven. John also tells us that there will be no more death, or mourning, or crying, or pain. He also expresses a beautiful and touching picture of God himself wiping away “every tear from their eyes!” There will be no evil so no more need to lock the doors. There will be no more dying... so no more funerals. There will be no more pain... because those in heaven will have brand new bodies that will last forever. In fact, John writes that God declares, “I am making everything new!” The Bible doesn’t tell us everything that there is to know about heaven but the things it does tell us make it so wonderful that our hearts yearn to be there! Think about heaven from time to time today! Share the Gospel with someone else... God wants them there too!
