Ezek
11:16
Therefore say, Thus saith the
Lord God; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I
have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little
sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
The
Lord deals with His people and sometimes puts us in strange places because we
have not put Him first in our lives. He
lets us wander to find out how much we need to stay close to Him and maintain
an abiding relationship with Him. When
this happens, He is not forsaking us. He
is disciplining us. When this happens,
He does not leave us in our consequences.
He will be to us a little sanctuary in the midst of the heathen and in
the midst of the land we find ourselves in.
Although our choices may have led us to unfamiliar territory and godless
pursuits, we can anticipate that the Lord Himself will be a hiding place for us
in the midst of our unpleasant consequences.
He will be as a little sanctuary, a little hiding place, in the midst of
tough times even though we may deserve them.
Thank You Lord that You will NEVER leave us nor forsake us!
