the farther, the deeper

Ezekiel 47:3-6a (JDV)

Ezekiel 47:3 As the man went out east with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a third of a mile and led me through the water. It came up to my ankles.
Ezekiel 47:4 Then he measured off a third of a mile and led me through the water. It came up to my knees. He measured off another third of a mile and led me through the water. It came up to my waist.
Ezekiel 47:5 Again he measured off a third of a mile, and it was a river that I could not cross on foot. For the water had risen; it was deep enough to swim in, a river that could not be crossed on foot.
Ezekiel 47:6 He asked me, “Do you see this, son of Adam?”

the farther, the deeper

As the water spread, it became deeper. That is how the Holy Spirit within us works. He changes us, but the transformation becomes even more miraculous when we move out into the world. The farther we go, the deeper the change. Welcome to the amazing world of witness.
