Our Father
“‘For here’s what I’m going to do: I’m going to take you out of these countries, gather you from all over, and bring you back to your own land. I’ll pour pure water over you and scrub you clean. I’ll give you a new heart, put a new spirit in you. I’ll remove the stone heart from your body and replace it with a heart that’s God-willed, not self-willed. I’ll put my Spirit in you and make it possible for you to do what I tell you and live by my commands. You’ll once again live in the land I gave your ancestors. You’ll be my people! I’ll be your God! Ezekiel 36:24-28
Imagine a Father who's rebellious son contacts Him and wants to come home. The loving Father washes him, clothes him with new clothes and feeds him. Sound familiar? This is the story of the prodigal son, one Jesus told. Jesus impressed on us the Father's eagerness to receive His son home.
We are those sons in this day and age. When we come to the Lord wanting relationship, He gives us a new heart, one towards Him. We become soft to His voice and open up to Him and His word.
Why not try this relationship! You won't regret it! Amen!
