GM got a new daily devotional and the 1st days scripture seemed like a perfect fit for the world today.
I prefer the KJV or NIV, but the book uses NLT. It's worth looking at the NLT version (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel%2022%3A23-30&version=NLT)
Ezekiel 22:23-30
23 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
24 Son of man, say unto her, Thou art the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.
26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
27 Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.
28 And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord hath not spoken.
29 The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.
30 And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.
As always there's nothing new under the sun.
I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed weekend. Take some time for yourselves, and with your families and friends. Learn something new, stack some sats, get some work done, get some extra food stocked up, learn a new skill set, enjoy time outside etc. I'm catching up on paperwork this morning then going to enjoy the day with my kids.
If you need something please reach out to #prayerchain even if it's not your particular belief system. If you are in a rough place and feel you have no way out please reach out.
