The Bride

Then one of the seven angels who held the seven bowls
containing the seven last plagues came and said to me,
“Come with me! I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
So he took me in spirit to a great, high mountain,
and he showed me the holy city, Jerusalem,
descending out of heaven from God.
It was filled with the glory of God
and sparkled like a precious gem,
crystal clear like jasper.
~Rev. 21:9-11

Thanks Janet! Love you and agree that it is wild to think that God sees us in that way.

You're welcome, my dear:). His presence comes through the photo. That sweet ache for the shores of heaven comes in to serenade me into the throne room...again, I stand in awe of His majesty. Majestic photo, Christa!
