Today’s devotion is based on Revelation 21:1, “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.” I sometimes think of our earth and what humans have done and are doing to it. I also think of what we are doing and have done to each other. While I would love to be able to wave a magic wand or something to make it all perfect again, I know it will never happen because people, as I am, are imperfect and sinful. I thank God for the new heaven and new earth that is coming. I try to imagine what the new heaven and earth will look like when this happens. I’ve seen pictures where people have tried to capture it. Some have said that it’s simply beyond our imagination and indescribable. All I know for sure is that I will be there, God will be there, and people that have gone there before me will be there too. I believe that, because God, through his Word, has told me. Please pray with me: God of the universe, thank you that you will make all things new. Thank you for your promise of a whole new heaven and earth for us. Please use your Word to change our hearts and minds so that we will better care for this earth and each other. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
