In a TV commercial I saw recently, the kids argued in the back seat of the car about where to stop for dinner. One wanted pizza; another chicken. Mom, in the front passenger seat, said, No, well stop for a hamburger.
Dad quickly solved the family disagreement with this idea: Well stop at the buffet restaurant, and you can each have what you want and all you want. The commercial closes with the words, Take care of family squabbles about whats for dinner. Go to _____ Buffet, the Land of And.
When I saw that commercial, I thought of another Land of And: heaven. It is a place that will have all we need. Foremost, we will be in the very presence of Almighty God. In describing heaven, the apostle John said, The throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it (Rev. 22:3). Our thirsty souls will be completely satisfied from the pure river of water of life that proceeds from His throne (22:1), for He says to His people, I will give . . . freely to him who thirsts (21:6). Another and in this land will be the tree of life for the healing of the nations (22:2). What we wont find in this Land of And are the curse (22:3), death, sorrow, and tears (21:4).
Well be completely satisfied in that Land of And. Are you ready to go?
Thanks The Mayor ((((Hugs))))
