The light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold on the day when the Lord binds up the injuries of his people, and heals the wounds. Isaiah 30:26
God will dwell with them; they will be his peoples, and God himself will be with them; he will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away. Revelation 21:3–4
Balm of Gilead, thank you for love and care while we are present on this earth. Thank you for your caring for us in this life and then being our God in the life to come. May our faith and hope be bound up in you forever. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
