Ezekiel 2: 1-5

1 He said to me: O mortal, stand up on your feet, and I will speak with you. 2 And when he spoke to me, a spirit entered into me and set me on my feet; and I heard him speaking to me. 3 He said to me, Mortal, I am sending you to the people of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have transgressed against me to this very day. 4 The descendants are impudent and stubborn. I am sending you to them, and you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’ 5 Whether they hear or refuse to hear (for they are a rebellious house), they shall know that there has been a prophet among them.

You asked me to stand.

Well I’m standing. 

Although, to be honest, I’m a little unsteady. 

What you’re asking is… scary.

I’ll go. Of course I’ll go.

There isn’t much choice is there? 

I’ll get no peace otherwise. 

Even if I wanted to say no, my heart won’t let me. 

Not when you speak to me so directly, 

not when I can feel your call vibrate in my bones. 

The energy of your spirit pulls me to my feet. 

It’s exhilarating. I can feel your authority grow in me.

I can’t wait to get started. 

But I’m still scared. 

I want so much to be worthy of your trust in me. 

Thank you for reminding me that it doesn’t matter whether I succeed or fail.

All that matters is that I go. 

For yours is the power,

Yours is the glory. 

Forever and ever. 

Amen.
