Nothing new
April 28, 2020
Having been in Nashville just days before the last tornado, I remember friends who live and work there, the beauty of the Opry Convention Center and neighborhoods—so much, destroyed again.
In 2010 flooding brought destruction and death, yet Nashville and Tennessee recovered. And they will again. Ecclesiastes 1:9 There’s nothing new under the sun. This earth groans impacted by sin.
Let’s remember to continue to pray, and assist when we can, because the ‘after shocks’ of destruction continue. Costs, mold, fear, and anxiety. Memories of small treasures lost, memories of loved ones killed. Contrast it all with Heaven, no groans of earth, death and destruction.
We mourn, with hope, because this is all temporary. Heaven: new home new beauty guaranteed.
