ASLC Devotions -- Monday

Ezekiel 1:1-3
In the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was among the exiles by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God. ²On the fifth day of the month (it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin), ³the word of the Lord came to the priest Ezekiel son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the hand of the Lord was on him there.

In the two thousand and tenth year, in the fourth month, on the nineteenth day of the month, where are you and what visions will you see? 

These descriptions of where and when the visions of God came to people intrigue me to no end. Of course if something of that significance happened, we would remember exactly where and when, who was standing next to us, and what was happening around us. But we don't need to wait for such a stunning occasion. 

Look around. Listen closely. Where are the visions of God's kingdom around you? Where do you hear the word of the Lord? On this April 19, 2010, how are the heavens being opened around you? 

Peace,

Pastor Jenn
