Revelations 21: 10 & 11 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.  It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.

Do you feel like you need a vacation, time away from the pressures of life and cold?  Maybe life’s circumstances keep you from taking a vacation; illness, financial struggles, work and deadlines.

Life on earth is a short journey compared to eternity.  I urge you to keep the faith and hope in the Lord.  When we get to heaven our eternity will be spent in paradise.  We know eternity in heaven will far outshine even the most beautiful place on earth.   Can you imagine that with me?  What does your perfect place look like?  Who will be there with you?  Now that is Heaven!  Rev. 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the lamb its lamp.

Please pray with me – Heavenly Father thank you for creating this beautiful earth for us to enjoy.  Please help us to be content when things don’t feel so perfect and we long for something more.  Thank you that when we have finished this life we will be able to spend eternity with you in paradise.  Amen.
