Where on the New Heavens and New Earth is Matt?

Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth," for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. (Rev. 21:1-4)

your scripture sets it in a new context! I confess, I got kind of misty and hoped that I too would share in the soon coming dance.

Yet another example of the very real notion that meaning is contextual, eh?

Wish I could have witnessed you getting "misty."
