Ezekiel 24:15 The word of the Lord came to me:
Lord, Sometimes life just doesn’t make sense. But You promise to never leave me nor forsake me. Thank You.
Ezekiel 24:16 “Son of man, with one blow I am about to take away from you the delight of your eyes. Yet do not lament or weep or shed any tears.”
Lord, You know I like to know the “why” of life, but that’s not always possible or necessary. Help me to trust, even when I don’t understand.
Ezekiel 24:17 “Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. Keep your turban fastened and your sandals on your feet; do not cover your mustache and beard or eat the customary food of mourners.”
Lord, You know my heart. You know my fears, worries, doubts. Help me to lay them all at Your feet and surround myself instead with Your peace. Draw me closer with each breath. Amen.
Ezekiel 24:18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. The next morning I did as I had been commanded.
Have a blessed day.
