The Fountain of Life
They are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your house, and You give them drink from the river of Your pleasures. For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.
God’s plan for humans is more incredible than we can describe or even imagine! His eternal blessings will completely satisfy and give ever-flowing pleasures. God is the true source of the fountain of eternal life, and His light, though now unapproachable (1 Timothy 6:16), embodies the perfection and beauty He wants to share with us.
The book of Revelation connects the water of life with the tree of life introduced in the book of Genesis (Revelation 22:1-2; Genesis 2:9). For more about the tree of life and the wonders it represents, see our article on “The Tree of Life.” See also our article “Finding the Fountain of Life.”
