Yes it is coming back again,I mean the Covid virus ,it is called Covid 19 ,and people are becoming unwell, it would be wonderful if we could get rid of it. Alas if we did then something else will take its place,this is a fallen world ,and so sickness and death cannot be banished.But God has a wonderful plan it is called a new heaven and a new earth,prepared for a redeemed people.John the apostle of love had a wonderful vision,here is what he recorded,in Revelation 21,'Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth,for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away',we don't know a lot about it,but we can be assured it will be wonderful.John further writes,that God will wipe away ever tear from our eyes,and that there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain,for the old order of things has passed away.Imagine all the things that cause us pain here,will cease to exist,can that be possible,yes,because the one who will create it declares,'I am making everything new' (Rev 21 v5)
'Yes when this flesh,and heart shall fail,
And mortal shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace.
When we've been there a thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise,
Than when we first begun.
John Newton
