    The River That Made Everything Alive | Come Follow Me Bedtime Story | Ezekiel 47

    Drift off beside a river that begins as a trickle and brings everything to life. A Come Follow Me bedtime story for November 2–8, "A New Spirit Will I Put within You," from Ezekiel 1–3; 33–34; 36–37; 47. In Ezekiel's vision a tiny stream flows out from the door of the temple. It grows ankle deep, then knee deep, then waist deep, until it is a river big enough to swim in. It turns the desert green, heals the Dead Sea, fills the nets of the fishermen, and grows trees whose leaves never wither. A soft story for young children, with a quiet reminder that Jesus Christ is the living water. When the little ones are asleep, this week's sleep meditation, "I Will Both Search My Sheep," offers grown-ups a gentle rest with the Good Shepherd, and the morning meditation, "A New Spirit Will I Put within You," is waiting for the start of your day.

    A New Spirit Will I Put within You | Come Follow Me Morning Meditation | Ezekiel 1–3; 33–34; 36–47

    Begin this morning with the promise of a heart made new. A Come Follow Me morning meditation for November 2–8, "A New Spirit Will I Put within You," from Ezekiel 1–3; 33–34; 36–37; 47. Ezekiel lived among the exiles by the river Kebar in Babylon, far from the temple he loved, and the glory of the Lord found him there. This week we follow the prophet as the Spirit sets him upon his feet, as he is called to be a watchman for those he loves, and as the Lord promises to take away the stony heart and give a heart of flesh. If you would like to end the day gently too, this week's sleep meditation, "I Will Both Search My Sheep," rests in the Good Shepherd and the valley of dry bones, and the bedtime story, "The River That Made Everything Alive," follows a little stream that grows into a river.
