Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. I will cleanse you from all your uncleanness and your idols. Also, I will teach you to respect me completely, and I will put a new way of thinking inside you. I will take out the stubborn hearts of stone from your bodies, and I will give you obedient hearts of flesh. I will put my Spirit inside you and help you live by my rules and carefully obey my laws. You will live in the land I gave to your ancestors, and you will be my people, and I will be your God. So I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will command the grain to come and grow; I will not allow a time of hunger to hurt you. I will increase the harvest of the field so you will never again suffer shame among the nations because of hunger. Then you will remember your evil ways and actions that were not good, and you will hate yourselves because of your sins and your terrible acts that I hate. I want you to know that I am not going to do this for your sake, says the Lord GOD. Be ashamed and embarrassed about your ways, Israel. “ ‘This is what the Lord GOD says: This is what will happen on the day I cleanse you from all your sins: I will cause the cities to have people living in them again, and the destroyed places will be rebuilt. The empty land will be plowed so it will no longer be a ruin for everyone who passes by to see. They will say, “This land was ruined, but now it has become like the garden of Eden. The cities were destroyed, empty, and ruined, but now they are protected and have people living in them.” Then those nations still around you will know that I, the LORD, have rebuilt what was destroyed and have planted what was empty. I, the LORD, have spoken, and I will do it.’

In this heart-transforming devotional from the book of Ezekiel by, Vance K. Jackson, let God remove your stony heart and give you a new start. Surrender every aspect of your life to Him. Give Him every dark place. Let God heal every hurt place. Study and meditate on God’s Word — let God refresh you and let Him make you whole.
Jesus’ death and resurrection, as well as the promise of His return, prove His unending love for each of us both in words and deeds. Jesus said that there is no greater love than someone giving his life for his friends, but He didn’t merely say it. He did it.

"Love" is one of the top-ten most looked-up words at Merriam-Webster.com. But the editors there wisely commented: "We’re guessing that many people arrive at our site with a question—'what is the meaning of love?'—that actually requires answers beyond a dictionary definition." They’re right. We need to look to the Bible. Let’s spend 5 Days on Love in a study by Logos Bible Software.
Even amidst problems, look for the good, staying open and responding to what God brings. As we encounter God more intimately, our perspective is rewritten as He reveals new ways to approach our troubles.
