“Resurrection Revelations: The Lamb Who Reigns” |
|
Does life ever seem like you’re “wandering through the wilderness”? Do you fear that you won’t have enough? How many tears have you shed…and will shed? When we face this, so often we wonder if anyone really cares for us or about us. As we continue our Easter series, “Resurrection Revelations”, we are granted a vision of an uncountable crowd, wearing white robes, coming out of “the great tribulation.” Who are they praising? “The Lamb in the midst of the throne” who “will be their Shepherd.” On this Good Shepherd weekend, we praise the risen Christ who is with us, leading us, providing for us and wiping every tear from our eyes. This is the comfort we receive in the here and now; this is the hope we have when Jesus comes again to “wipe away every tear from their eyes.” |
