"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, sadness, crying or pain because all the old ways are gone. The one who was sitting on the throne said 'Look! I am making everything new!' Then he said, 'Write this because these words are true and can be trusted.'"  ~ Revelation 21:4-5
