Today's Devotion: Revelation 21:2 (New International Version)
I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

Revelation, of course, is talking about the coming of the Kingdom, the New Jerusalem. Whether it will be in our lifetime or sometime later, won't keep us from that day. We must continue to prepare for that wedding.

Today's Comments: For my ethics class, I am preparing a book report on Ronald Sider's Good News and Good Works. It is a book that discusses the merits of both evangelism and social concern. I believe that God calls on us to do both, until that time that the Kingdom of Christ arrives. It is how we do both that may be an interesting sidebar to my book report. In any case, we must prepare ourselves and do that which God inspires us to do.
