Dry Bones

I heard a sermon Sunday about the prophet Ezekiel prophesying to the dry bones.  Dry bones that took life through the move of God on the land brought forth by a willing servant. This sermon struck me to the core because it is the same message that God has been whispering in my ear for a few months.   I have cheated myself over the years because of my weight, and more so I have cheated the call of God on my life.  My weight is my sin to bare no different than an old school scarlet letter.  I have hidden my gifts and talents from everyone around me.  I have allowed my lust for food and pleasures of my flesh to dry out the life in my bones like the valley Ezekiel was carried away to by the Lord.  The wind of life and change is blowing around us and it is time to become a people who are alive. God is calling us out of our dry place and into a land of plenty.  The spirit of God is reviving a people who are hungry for Him and not that of the flesh.  We are called to be a people of change and that change starts with ourselves.  Make change happen in your life........
