Today's Scripture Focus

Matthew 19:28-30

devotional summary

Think about the fact that we live in a broken, corrupted,polluted, sin-scarred world that has collapsed into emptinessawaiting to be revealed when creation is consummated, completed,renewed by the final battle of good against evil. Imagine with allthe beauty of this world, what the next one must be like, well,maybe you can’t. I know I can’t. I’ve seen some great things here,so what will the new heaven and new earth be like?

But all creation awaits it. The earth groans like a woman inbirthing pains. Can you sense it? Take a look at the news reportsand listen to the birthing pains of creation. The earthquakes, thefamines, the wild storms, the inexplicable changes happening allaround us. Some will try to explain it all away as man’s doing. Ina way it is, but it’s not our fossil fuel use. It started withAdam’s fall and has gotten worse ever since. But God made a plan tocomplete creation, to renew it.

Those who follow Jesus will be a part of this renewed creation.We will experience this new heaven and new earth. As beautiful asthis one is in some parts, the next will have no damaged parts. Andall creation longs for it. All creation awaits that day. Allcreation looks for the day when God’s children will be revealed sowe can once again be the caretakers of God’s beautiful gardens, Hiscreation, His wonders and glorious kingdom. Can you imagine what itwill be like?
