November 3

Today's Reading

Ezekiel. It's easy to see results of God's judgment and say, "How can He call Himself a loving God? Look at what He did to all those innocent people." Perhaps we need to see what He sees, as happened to Ezekiel in chapter 8. Chapter 9 made me ask myself if I would be "marked" as someone who has wept over the sins of my people. What about you?

Hebrews: if the Son of God learned obedience through sufferings, how about you and me? We are tempted to think that there must be some other way to learn, but our trials are intended to bring the impurities (dross) of our lives to the surface. We can then confess those things a yield our life to God who loves us.

Psalms: "8 He always stands by his covenant—
the commitment he made to a thousand generations."
Amen!

Proverbs: when we lie, there's some hatred at the root. Even if it's self-hatred.

What did you notice today?
