I have loved these verses since the first time I read them. I once listened to a man read them in church and as he read, he began to weep. I was so touched by his emotions. These words describe why we can still have hope in this world even among all the sin and evil. The New Jerusalem Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passe away." he who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Revelation 21:1-5a
