The River of Water of Life.
There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.--Psalm 46:4, NKJV
THE PROPHET BEHOLDS THE "RIVER OF WATER OF LIFE, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb." "And on this side of the river and on that was the tree of life." "And there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away." Revelation 22:1, 22:2, R.V.; 21:4....
..."They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters" [Revelation 7:16, 17].--Education, 302, 303.
Oh, for language to express the glory of the bright world to come! I thirst for the living streams that make glad the city of God.--Early Writings, 39.
Let all that is beautiful in our earthly home remind us of the crystal river and green fields, the waving trees and living fountains, the shining city and the white-robed singers, of our heavenly home--that world of beauty which no artist can picture, no mortal tongue describe.--Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students, 55.
"Look! I am creating new heavens and a new earth,
and no one will even think about the old ones anymore.
Be glad; rejoice forever in my creation!
And look! I will create Jerusalem as a place of happiness.
Her people will be a source of joy."
--Isaiah 65:17, 18, NLT
