around us. John records that God who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new. Write,

will dwell with them, and they shall be God’s people. God will be with them and be their God.”
While this is a vision of a glorious future where there will be no more death, sorrow, or pain, God even
today desires to make all things new, first in our relationship to God and others, and in the world
around us. John records that God who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new. Write,
