Devotion - Monday, November 27

There is this line, in I Peter 1:12:
It was revealed to (the prophets) that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things which have now been announced to you by those who preached to good news to you through the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which the angels long to look.

"Things into which the angels long to look."

The God whom we worship became incarnate.  God takes on our flesh and lives among us.  To behold the goodness of God, one needs to be on the earth rather than above the earth or circling the earth.

We speak of heaven as that most desirable place, but what is revealed to us is the stuff into which angels long to look.
