God with us.


From today's reading: "See, the home of God is among mortals. He will dwell with them as their God; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them; he will wipe every tear from their eyes." Rev. 21:3-4

What a wonderful promise we have from our Lord. His home is with us. He dwells in our midst and we don't have to go off somewhere looking for him. This is one of the lessons that is often read at funerals. It is comforting to know that He will be with us through everything - ready to wipe away our tears and holding on to us regardless of our circumstances. For me it is a very calming reminder when things get crazy in my life - to know that I can just reach out and God is there - never intrusive, but always available.
