ME, FIRST
Today's reading: Ezekiel 1-6

"...Son of man, let all my words sink deep into your own heart first. Listen to them carefully for yourself." Ezekiel 3:10 NLT

I get the notes from you in regards to how you have been able to pass along the daily devotions to others. I receive your e-mails thanking me for sharing what I've written instead of keeping it to myself. I read the thank-you's for giving you a laugh. I open the correspondence you send that simply says, Amen.

I'm glad God led me in to the ministry of 'writing' and posting on the world wide web. I'm daily in amazement that He speaks to me, at all, let alone in such grand ways on some mornings! I'm thrilled I can help another. And, well, I hate to admit it, but I LOVE doing it! And the accountability? Well, knowing someone else might need what He's speaking to me keeps my nose in the word and my heart open to His guidance.

But I'm not preaching. I'm attempting to not tell you what to do without re-arranging my heart, too. I'm not hitting send before all that's written pricks my own heart, points out areas where a lot of work is needed or I myself have found something I need to confess to my Savior.

It's going through my heart first. Then my head. Then my fingers. Then the computer. Then to you. Then back to me to attempt to live out as best I can!
