This weeks readings and question of the week:
Take time to mediate on God’s word and prepare for worship this Sunday.  And as you meditate on them, consider the Question of the Week:

How can I put into action Jesus’ commandment to love one another this week?

Acts 14:21-27
Psalm 145:8-9, 10-11, 12-13
Revelation 21:1-5a
Revelation 21:4-5a
He will wipe every tear from their eyes,
and there shall be no more death or mourning, wailing or pain,
for the old order has passed away.”

The One who sat on the throne said,
“Behold, I make all things new.”

These wonderful words were spoken to the beloved disciple John on the Island of Patmos in a vision and are recorded for us all in the last book of the Bible, the Revelation to the Beloved Disciple John. They are words of promise that address the heart cry of the entire human race on this day. They answer one of our deepest longings – to be made new, to begin again.
The redeemed of the earth will enjoy peace, perfect health, eternal life and a continual growth in their knowledge and love of God.
