Dry

Steve Skiver   -  

 

The last couple of The Family Table Devotions have been Lent meditations based around water. Today’s meditation is based on this upcoming Sunday’s Old Testament reading from Ezekiel 37 and the dry bones.

 

 

Dry

 

Can these dry bones live

Jesus, you know

My hope is lost

I cry out to the wind

Still I am dry

You put me in the middle of the valley

I had to admit seeing all the dry bones

The others all very dry, too

I am asked to proclaim to the dry

Jesus, you know

The wind is spirit

The Spirit is breath

With the breath is life

The bones come together

Rauch Elohim

The promise

Brought to the mountain

Cleansed

One Shepherd

Dry bones hear the Word of the Lord

You Know

Jesus
