The Son

I hate daylight savings time. Really hate it. I would vote for someone who's platform was abolishing the foolish thing...so I thought I would post a little sunshine joy. And by the way, if you have time, click on the picture above and check out the large version of this photo. The textures are so lovely to me...feel free to use it as a desk top for your computer if you would like.

"The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life."

That is a verse about heaven...how perfect is it that in the world to come God is the center of that world, the source of heat, light, nourishment, health, and enlightenment. That image fills me with such hope and delights.

  2. This is from Revalations right? A quote that I like about that book is, (I'm paraphrasing) "When you are down on life and the world, just remember that we know the ending. We win." The "We" is Christians. (I had a typo in my plast comment :)

  4. LOL I went to post this morning, and thought 4 comments! Whoa! I'm probably the queen of typos so I'm right there with you...yep that's a Revelations verse. I can't think of the specific verse you mentioned, but that idea is certainly all over the book.
