“…
For I will take you from the nations, gather you from all the lands and bring
you into your own land. 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. I will put My Spirit within you
and cause you to walk in My statues, and you will be careful to observe My
ordinances….”
Ezekiel
36:24-27
The
people of Israel went wild and abandoned all they knew to be right in the eyes
of God. Perhaps their greatest sin was
that they turned away from God and to pagan idols. Even at their worst, God never stopped loving
the Israelites. They were God’s people
and God wanted them back.
God
still changes hearts, and He still wants His people back. And, that means He wants you, because you are
made in His image and you are one of His people.
