First Reading
Revelation 22:1-7
Read this as the first big movement of the day. Notice what God is doing, who is speaking, and what part of the story or teaching should stay with you.
1And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2In the midst of the street thereof, and on both sides of the river, was the tree of life, bearing twelve fruits, yielding its fruits every month, and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3And there shall be no curse any more; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall serve him.
4And they shall see his face: and his name shall be on their foreheads.
5And night shall be no more: and they shall not need the light of the lamp, nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God shall enlighten them, and they shall reign forever and ever.
6And he said to me: These words are most faithful and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show his servants the things which must be done shortly.
7And, Look I come quickly. Blessed is the one who keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book.
