"God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes."
Revelation 7:17
I delight greatly in the New Jerusalem, not because it has
a street of pure gold and twelve gates of pearl, but because there will be the presence
of the Lord and the absence of any more tears. We may die and rest in Christ, yet
we are not just waiting for death but for the coming day when the world shall
weep no more.
The New Jerusalem is coming very soon, and this tearful
world will pass instantly away. On that day the Lord will give us a
resurrection body. I think that that body will be similar to the one we have
today, possessing all the different members it has now. But it will be a
transformed body. And in this transformed body one thing will be missing—tears
in the eyes. The Lord has borne our pain so that we may not suffer again in the
future. Thank God for the prospect of no more tears forever.
