Lenten Prayer 1: Ash Wednesday

Dry Bones

Ezekiel 37:1-3

Death surrounds me. OK - maybe not ACUAL
Death...but the Idea of Death, at least.
The Valley is full of bones...dry bones.

And YOU'RE asking ME if these bones can live?

O Lord God ~ YOU know! You know.

Life surrounds me, too. ACTUAL Life!
Not only an Idea.
Even in the Valley of Bones - the
Valley of the Shadow of Death -
There YOU are - the living God -
And so...
Life surrounds me.
