The End, New Creation
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death, or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
Revelation 21:3-4
Read
Isaiah 63, Luke 24, Revelation 21:1-5
Reflect
1. Have you ever been homesick? When? And where were you? What was happening in your life?
2. When things get hard, do you tend to withdraw? Do you get the stiff upper lip and try not to "let 'em see you sweat?"
3. Read Revelation 21:1-5. What echoes of other Scriptures do you hear in this passage?
4. What does this homesickness have to do with missing both a place - and a person?
Do
Listen to Elle Limebear's song, "Maker of the Moon." What lyrics stick out to you? What do you notice about her description of God's glory and His intimate relationship to you?
