Recently, I was reading a local health magazine. One of the articles was about healthy breads and cereals. It featured a brand of bread called Ezekiel 4:9. It actually does appeal to me more than the normal stuff, because I like foods with lots of ingredients mixed in. But the point of Ezekiel’s prophecy is that things are going to be so bad in Jerusalem that people are going to eat whatever they can get. Ezekiel himself was repulsed at the idea of cooking his food over human dung, an impure and shameful thing to him. The LORD assigned him cow’s dung instead.
Thank you, LORD, for being sensitive to the feelings and wishes of your messengers. You are a kind and compassionate God.
Ezekiel 4-5:4
