Called to Care – Day 30

₁Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth disappeared, and the sea vanished. ₂And I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared and ready, like a bride dressed to meet her husband. ₃I heard a loud voice speaking from the throne: “Now God's home is with human beings! He will live with them, and they shall be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God. ₄He will wipe away all tears from their eyes. There will be no more death, no more grief or crying or pain. The old things have disappeared.”

₅Then the one who sits on the throne said, “And now I make all things new!” He also said to me, “Write this, because these words are true and can be trusted.” ₆And he said, “It is done! I am the first and the last, the beginning and the end. To anyone who is thirsty I will give the right to drink from the spring of the water of life without paying for it. ₇Those who win the victory will receive this from me: I will be their God, and they will be my children.
