Then I looked up, and I saw the sky open. I saw a beautiful place where God’s home is forever. In this place, good things happen and everyone is always happy. “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8, RSV
Dear God, thank you for your promises that make us happy. In the Bible, we learn about your perfect kingdom full of light and love, with no sadness or bad things. Thank you for showing us a bit of your greatness in our lives, even when things are hard. When we have tough times, you make us feel better and give us hope.
We look for safety in your Word. You show yourself as the one who fixes and makes new things. Let this strong hope shape our lives and help us stay true to you.
You have already done so many good things for us, and we thank you for it. Help us to be strong through your words. Let people who look for truth see your light clearly. In this light, help them be brave to follow you with strong faith and love, until one day your glory is everywhere.
Amen.
