Yes, let's do it you guys.

Today we're reading out of Ezekiel 11 verse 19 and 20

and it is titled a responsive heart.

It says, I will give them singleness of heart and put a new

spirit within them. I will take away their stony, stubborn heart and give them a tender, responsive heart. So they will obey

my decrees and regulations. Then they will truly be my people and I will be their God. The love letter from God says

beloved child you are my child and you are very special to me. I will give you a new heart, one that will be responsive to my

leading. You're set apart to love and serve me in the world. I give you the power

to help others see me by the way that you live.

Be careful to act in such a way that others want to know me better. The influence I've

given you will only reach its full potential if you pursue

me with all your heart. With the tender heart I give you, everyone will see that you are truly my child and I am your father.

Love your Heavenly Father. The reflection says,

God wants to replace our stubborn hearts with hearts that are ready to serve him.

When we live for God, we show that we are truly his children.

He wants us to be part of his family.
