A New Heaven and a New Earth - The Bird's Eye View God is making all things new.

“Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.” -John 20:19 “...as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you." Peace is: Presence – Suddenly, Jesus is present among them, before them, and for them. The presence of Jesus releases them from their terror and calls them out of hiding. Ease – The General come into a room of privates and someone calls, “Attention!” Then the General says, “At ease,” and the troops take a more relaxed stance.

Blessed is the King who comes in the Name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest (Luke 19:38) Today, we join the eternal chorus of welcome as the Lord Jesus Christ enters into our consciousness as the King who comes in the Name of the Lord. He is the Prince of Peace and righteousness. His Kingdom comes with glory and praise, but also with a cross of pain and disgrace. Yet, He willing enters into the sphere of time, space, and judgment to face whatever stands between Him and His mission to bring all who welcome Him into eternal fellowship with the Father. Let us lift our voices in worship as we worship Him. https://medium.com/@tomsims/he-showed-up-a6f9a2475a59 #PalmSunday #conviction #entry #triumphalentry #palms #jerusalem #luke #jesus #thepassion #courage #compassion #empathy #Conviction
