“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him. --- 1 Corinthians 2:9 NLT We cannot imagine all that God has in store for us, both in this life and for eternity. He will create a new heaven and a new earth (Isaiah 65:17; Revelation 21:1), and we will live with him forever. Until then, Holy Spirit comforts and guides us. Knowing the wonderful and eternal future that awaits us gives us hope and courage to press on in this life, to endure hardship, and to avoid giving in to temptation. This world is not all there is. The best is yet to come. --- Life Application Study Bible notes PRAYER Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your generous mercy and grace that gives us the blessed hope. Thank You for the wonders of our eternal future and Your desire to spend eternity with us. Your great plan is beyond my imagination and beyond my biggest dream. Though I can’t see it, help me trust You and Your promise. Thank You, Jesus, for going back to heaven and preparing a place of glory for me in heaven. I anticipate the day that Jesus returns to take us home to be with You, Father. I will rejoice in Your love and goodness forever and ever. In Jesus’ name, Amen
