Today’s Thought “Anticipation” G. Ward

Revelation 21:4

“He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

 

Pain in life cannot be averted due to man’s sinfulness and while most seek to pervade catchy phrases, deemed motivational, those who listen will often question what they did so wrong that disallows their sentiment in the same. The greatest construct given man doesn’t exist in vain philosophies (soon to be replaced by additional trials for refusal to acknowledge where true help is found – cf. Ro.10:14), but any must ask where peace exists (John 14:27) and whereas the so-called believer is anxious to get to another religious session to criticize today’s culture (considered void of absolutes), many forsake the sole objective in knowing HIM; to invite others not to their magnificent edifices, but to share the Way, Truth and Life (John 14:6). *Mercy shown any, contradicts thanksgiving when praise usurps obedience (Luke 6:46). No one is deserving of grace and since Love found you, how about ensuring another receives the Blessed Hope – Jesus?
