Ezekiel tells us the story of “great waters” flowing out from below the temple that becomes deep and wide to the sea “bringing fresh water where before it had been stagnant.” Wherever the river goes it will become fresh and everything will live abundantly where the river goes…fruit for food and leaves for healing.”
I believe Ezekiel, with this story, is predicting the love of God, as shown by the future Jesus, as bringing a unique benefit to all of humankind…to be shared by all who will take part in it. A supreme gift to God’s people, indeed all people who accept him and the gift of the “water”.
PRAYER: May we all come together in unity someday, swimming together in the abundant waters of life freely given to us by our God. Amen.
