Wiping Every Tear

[S] Revelations 7:14-17 --

 ¹⁴I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
 ¹⁵"For this reason, they are before the throne of God; and they serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.
 ¹⁶"They will hunger no longer, nor thirst anymore; nor will the sun beat down on them, nor any heat;
 ¹⁷for the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and will guide them to springs of the water of life; and God will wipe every tear from their eyes."

[O] Something about this scene gives me an awesome feeling as it provides a glimpse into the Heavenly surroundings which I'll be seeing when I go there.  Spreading His tabernacle, to me, means getting all wrapped up in His awesome presence because tabernacle is where God dwelled with His people in the wilderness.  Is it correct to say God always wants to tabernacle with His people?  But that's true -- God always wants to tabernacle with me even if when I'm totally ignoring Him.  Verse 17 really supports this because my Shepherd from the center of the throne will guide me to the true source of life and He will also wipe every tear from my eyes.  I knew that partaking in His ministry was no walk in the park, but I didn't anticipate having to cry so much in the process; and it is just amazing to have experienced God personally wiping my tear from my eyes and furthermore He promises to do that continuously.  Just awesome!

[A] Cry to Him.  Let my tears flow at His feet.

[P] Dear God, You know every tear drop falling from me.  And You will wipe them every time.  Thank You! I pray in Your precious name.  Amen.
