DAILY READINGS: 2 Chronicles 1-2; Ezekiel 27; John 10:1-18

There shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  Revelation 21:4b

Today I read an article where a person stated that their health was their only wealth. What a tragedy! Tomorrow that health could be gone. And yet, for the Christian, who may be suffering the painful effects of ill health today, there is a wonderful future to look forward to. One day we will have new bodies created in His likeness, and there will be no more suffering or pain. Perhaps today. —J. Fleming

Pain has gone and heaven’s begun—life today not lost but won.
Free from the aches that bound you so, and with the One you loved below.
It will not be long ere we meet again, upon that shore, beyond earth’s pain;
The tears that fall, He’ll wipe away, there in that land of endless day. —J. F.
