Along with mansions, the Bible also gives us a description of the place Jesus went to prepare for believers, John 14:2.
To catch a glimpse of that place will boggle our minds far beyond anything we as humans can imagine.
Revelation 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Revelation 22:5 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.
The book of Revelation tells us many more awesome things about that marvelous place.
Today clouds of chaos threaten our land, our families, and even our freedom.
I don’t know all the answers, but they tell me of an unclouded day in the place Jesus went to prepare for us.
That’s a comfort to my soul.
The Unclouded Day

“O they tell me of a home far beyond the skies, — O they tell me of a home far away; — O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise, — O they tell me of an unclouded day.
Chorus:
“O the land of cloudless day, — O the land of an unclouded sky, — O they tell me of a home where no storm clouds rise, — O they tell me of an unclouded day.
“O they tell me of a home where my friends have gone, — O they tell me of that land far away, — Where the tree of life in eternal bloom — Sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.
“O they tell me of the King in His beauty there, — And they tell me that mine eyes shall behold — Where He sits on the throne that is whiter than snow, — In the city that is made of gold.
“O they tell me that He smiles on His children there, — And His smile drives their sorrows all away; — And they tell me that no tears ever come again — In that lovely land of unclouded day.”
Josiah K. Alwood 1885
