Window 4: The Final Story (Happily Ever After)
The Kingdom of God is the Heart of God.
We are in the “Already, but not yet” Kingdom of God.
In the New City of God, the old order of things will pass away.
There will no longer be any toil in our work.
There will be no more sickness or death.
We are in our “Already, but not yet” bodies.
Jesus is our example of a new heavenly body.
Our new bodies will resemble our souls.
We should be asking God to reveal who He is making people into so that we can pray into that.
We are a part of a story that never ends.
Which reality are you going to live in today?
