“No More Tears”
“‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”~ Revelation 21:4 NIV
Johnson’s Baby Shampoo introduced its iconic "No More Tears" formula in 1953, featuring the slogan "Johnson's can't burn eyes". The brand, recognized by its signature yellow formula, was advertised in magazines like Family Circle as early as 1956 and later dominated TV airwaves with ads highlighting the gentle, tear-free, and safe formula for babies.
Have you ever thought about the incompleteness of Revelation 21:4? Our Heavenly Father tells us four things we’ll not have to endure in eternity; death, sorrow, crying, tears, and pain. Hallelujah for that! But that’s just a summary. There will be no more illness, no more crime, no more sin, no more separation, no more debt, no more anxiety. And there will be no more war among each other!
It’s estimated right now the United States spends about a trillion dollars a year on its military services, followed by China with more than 300 billion, then Russia with 150 billion. These vast sums of finance arms and armies, and the weapons have never been more deadly in our life time from fighting with rocks to missiles and drones. When we look around the world today, we see armed conflicts everywhere. But God has promised that one day there will be no more wars. This should bring hope to our heart! We need to pray for peace on earth and for the armed forces of all the world’s nations. But we must not be so worried about today’s conflicts that we forget to thank God for His promises about tomorrow. Read and spend time this Monday to meditate on Revelations chapter 21.
“Earth’s troubles fade in the light of heaven’s hope.” ~Billy Graham
“he will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; he will remove his people’s disgrace from all the earth. The Lord has spoken.”
~ Isaiah 25:8 NIV
Amen…
