"John saw a new Heaven and a new Earth… a future time when all who dwell upon the planet will be at peace. Jerusalem, both earthly and heavenly will co-exist together as one. Our Lord uses the image of groom waiting eagerly to receive his beautiful bride. God will dwell intimately with us in a brand new way.
Every tear will be wiped away. Sorrow and suffering will be transformed into joy. The veil will be lifted that separates us from seeing the things from Heaven. The old order, caused by the sin of Adam and Eve, will give way to the new order of the resurrected Adam (Jesus), and the assumed Eve (Mary). What great joy we have in store for us. “Maranatha”, come Lord Jesus. We long to see the coming of the Lord!
Entrusting you to the care of Our Lady,
Fr. Mark Bozada"
