God is the creator of everything! He owns everything and does not require our sacrifices. He requires from us humble hearts and contrite spirits as we journey from life to glory. Our journey begins with confession and trust in the Lord, maker of heaven and earth. As we live in relationship with our Lord and Savior he prepares us as his beloved children to share in his suffering as well as his glory. The Holy Spirit empowers us to grow in relationship with him and others as he applies the benefits of Christ's redeeming work to the hearts of believers.

God is making everything new! he is the beginning and the end. Our earthly tents are frail and fleeting, vulnerable and wasting away. In God's house they are permanent, solid, and built by God! In heaven there is no death, mourning or crying. The thirsty will drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this. Do not let your hearts be troubled. Our Father has prepared a place for us in heaven with him!
