On the Journey...
(Weekly insights from FMC Leaders) September 28, 2016 
A few months ago I shared something from Revelation with the Sunday School class. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it.” Revelation 2:17 (ESV)
The idea of this white stone with a new name written on it got me a bit curious, so I googled it. The most accepted understanding of this is that at the time of this writing, athletes were given a stone with their name on it when they won a race. This was their prize/token to get into the celebrative banquet later on. I don't know about you but this is exciting to me. It gives us a look at what Heaven is going to be like - we will be celebrating! And there is nothing wrong with celebrating the fact that we will be celebrating. Let's be joyful in our life here and remember that God is good! By: Maribeth Rhodes |
