In Ezekiel 2-3 God commissioned Ezekiel to speak for God to the rebelious people of Israel. God fed Ezekiel a scroll. This tasted sweet, but afterwards it produced bitterness. God said to him these important words:
10 …“Son of man, let all my words sink deep into your own heart first. Listen to them carefully for yourself.
The young woman tells her story in today’s reading.
Jesus said, “Immediately after those days, the sun will be darkened and the moon will give no light.” Just three days ago, in the evening, I was with the Orya people at a youth retreat. The pastor pointed out that the Bible says the moon will turn into blood (or be the color of blood). He had come from town and is not an Orya speaker. He told the people that he had seen that morning on the Internet that on that very night there would be a “blood moon”— or a solar eclipse where the mood would turn red like blood. And while he was speaking about that and other end-times signs, sure enough, it happened! Nothing like God managing a visual presentation for you! I have never seen a more moving sight.
