God's Children


"Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh."
Ezekiel 36: 25-26

I absolutely love these lines of Scripture. Yes, I am Jewish by birth, but it's so much more than that. 
You, O Lord, are definitely speaking to the Jewish people in these verses, but it is my belief that I and all believers in Christ, Messiah, can claim these words. As believers we are also Your people.
If I feel myself becoming hard in an area or off track all I have to do is pray these words. I make it personal.
(Romans 11: 16 - 21; 8: 17 and 2 Corinthians 5: 17)

Thank you, my Lord, for Your words of  truth. They bring life to my very being. You hold me up when I am too weak and bring me into your loving arms.
Amen.
