Sunny Days

Sunny Days

“And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.” (Rev. 21:25)


There is no gloomy day in eternity. The Son always shines, and the days are always “good days”. The gates need not be shut, for the safety of all is assured; there is no darkness in eternity.

Darkness is a cloak for evil; an evil doer can “hide” in darkness, even right out in the open, but, friends, there are sunny days ahead! I can’t imagine a place where it never rains! I cannot fathom having light continually, and never having to sleep or flee from the evils of night. What a wonderfully glorious place Heaven will be! The brightness of the glory of God will be sufficient to lighten all of heaven, and we will find comfort in the solace of His grace. Another verse in the Revelation takes it a step further:

“And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.” (Rev. 22:5)

“The Lord giveth them light”. All light is of the Lord, and it is good, and His light is everlasting. We have a hidden teaching here--that is that the Lord gives enlightenment forever! When the “light comes on” and we “see the light” in our lives, it is an everlasting light, even as the salvation it brings with it! Are your days clouded by sin? Are you enjoying the Sunshine of grace? It doesn’t have to be that way, we all have a choice in the matter. If you prefer to live in darkness the rest of your life, you may also spend eternity in the darkness of hell; that is up to you, my friend. The Light has been provided, as well as the Life, and it is ours for the taking. Trust the Lord today, and forever hereafter.
