"I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, " To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!" And the four living creatures said, " Amen!" and the elders fell down and worshiped."
Revelation 5:13-14
Beloved, what sounds do you find pleasant? Is there something that you hear that evokes emotion? Perhaps you enjoy the sound of the waves in the ocean? The fall wind moving through the trees. Instrumental music can be inspirational and moving. Many sounds compel us to respond.
One can only imagine what heaven sounds like. The sight of God's glory will put us in awe but when we read these verses the sounds of heaven are equally glorious as the sight of what faith will finally behold.
We strain our ears at times trying to catch what someone says or the soft melody of nature. Our ears cannot hear the chores of heaven yet but soon our eyes and ears shall be overwhelmed with the splendor of paradise.
When the daily news causes weariness to the heart, encourage yourself by listening to scripture and the hymns. Be inspired by the praise of God's people and set your heart to the time when you will hear the beauty of heaven.
In Christ Alone,
Pastor Wight
