your sister’s cup

IMG_1837Ezekiel 23

This is another one of those PG passages in Scripture.  It describes the judgment upon Jerusalem and the reason for it. Jerusalem lusted after the young studs of Babylon like her sister Samaria had lusted after the young studs of Assyria.  She had allowed herself to be used until that was all she was.  Like Samaria, it was now Jerusalem’s time to bear the penalty for her sinful idolatry. 

LORD, may our desire be for you and your word.  Purge from us the lust for other things.
