Ezekiel 12:1-18:32
What God said to me – The word of the Lord . . . the word of the Lord . . . the word of the Lord – do you see how often I speak? I have much to say to My children and yet few take the time to listen. I want to be your intimate friend and speak to you about the things on My heart, but you must be willing to take the time to listen. Building a close friendship takes spending much time together sharing, ministering, laughing, crying – otherwise you are just acquaintances. I have chosen you to be My friend but you must choose Me to be your friend by spending the time necessary to build our friendship. Are you willing to spend the time? Do you want to be an acquaintance of Mine or My intimate friend?
