Home Sweet Home February 17, 2018


Isaiah 65:17   (NIV)
17 “See, I will create
    new heavens and a new earth.
The former things will not be remembered,
    nor will they come to mind.

What kind of place is heaven?
First, heaven is home. The Bible takes the word “home” with all of its tender associations and with all of its sacred memories and tells us that heaven is home. Second, heaven is a home which is permanent. We have the promise of a home where Christ’s followers will remain forever. Third, the Bible teaches that heaven is a home which is beautiful beyond every imagination. Heaven could not help but be so, because God is a God of beauty. Fourth, the Bible teaches that heaven will be a home which is happy, because there will be nothing to make it sad. In heaven families and friends will be reunited. God’s house will be a happy home because Christ will be there. He will be the center of heaven. To Him all hearts will turn, and upon Him all eyes will rest.

Thought for today: Am I giving thought to eternity?
