Lavacolla to Santiago de Compostela: 10.2 km, about 3 hours

Revelation 7:9-17
v. 9-10 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.”

Right now I’m looking around the cathedral, and here before us is a great multitude filling every seat, leaning against pillars and crowding the aisles, people from many nations and languages, standing before the golden statue of the apostle Santiago above the great altar. They are wearing tech clothing and hiking boots and holding smart phones in their hands and crying out to one another, “We made it!” And if they know the one God who sits on the throne above it all, they say, “By God’s grace! The only way we made it is by God’s grace!” And they join the angels, unseen but ever present, proclaiming around the throne: “Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!” (v. 11).
