What a glorious end to Scripture with a promise repeated three times:
“I am coming soon” (Rev. 22:7),
“I am coming soon” (Rev 22:12),
“I am coming soon” (Rev 22:20).We echo the response of the author of Revelation:
“Yes! Come Lord Jesus.”

I want to get better at walking through the world, not sprinting towards a finish. I want to enjoy the scenery. I want to "taste and see that the LORD is good" (Ps. 34:8) — taste and see, not just "remember and keep moving."

Repentance is a spiritual medicine made up of six special ingredients:
1. Sight of sin
2. Sorrow for sin
3. Confession of sin
4. Shame for sin
5. Hatred for sin
6. Turning from sinIf any ingredient is left out, it loses its virtue.
