First Reading for The Common of Martyrs

Revelation 21:5-7

This reading can be used during the Easter season.

Summary: God declares all things renewed and offers life-giving water to those who thirst. The faithful will inherit his promises and be his children forever.

All Things Made New

The One who was seated on the throne said: “Behold, I make all things new.”

Then he said, “Write these words down, for they are trustworthy and true.”

He said to me, “They are accomplished. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give a gift from the spring of life-giving water. The victor will inherit these gifts, and I shall be his God, and he will be my son.”
