In the book of Revelation, we find a promise that God is bringing renewal to all things. Everything broken or worn out will one day be restored. This renewal is not only about the world around us but also about the lives we live and the relationships we hold. When we look closely, we can see many areas that need change, healing, or forgiveness.

The words from Scripture remind us that God is not creating a whole new world from nothing. Instead, He is taking what already exists and renewing it through His grace. I believe the goal is not to replace, but to restore; that is, to make things as they were meant to be.

Consider what this promise means for our personal lives. Each person can look inward and see where growth or renewal is needed. Through the love and mercy of God, these parts of life can be made new. The process may take time, but the promise is certain. One day, everything will be the way God first intended when He looked at creation and called it “very good.”

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, this person is a new creation; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
