For those days when life feels like a tattered old dishrag,
Jesus says, “I am making everything new” (Revelation 21:5).
For the moments when words escape your mouth and you want them back,
“I am making everything new.”
For the dark hours when old wounds raise ugly heads, and for the early dawn hours when thoughts steal sleep,
“I am making everything new.”
For that twenty-fourth time of trying to get it right,
“I am making everything new.”
For that success that doesn’t bring joy anymore,
“I am making everything new.”
For the emptiness that grows a bit each day, and for the losses of dear loved ones,
“I am making everything new.”
For this, that, and the other,
“I am making everything new.”
Look to the future, Christian. Your hope is secure in Jesus Christ, and your eternal glory awaits.
