Some of you will rebuild the deserted ruins of your cities. Then you will be known as a rebuilder of walls and a restorer of homes. (NLT) -Isaiah 58:12 Every city has deserted ruins left from poverty, drugs, or hopelessness. We can choose to keep walking or we can choose to restore. While our spiritual gift may not be in renovating homes, we all have gifts that can restore a community in some way.

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=Revelation%2021%3A2-Revelation%2021%3A4&version=KJV
