Warn them from me

Maybe the Lord is trying to tell me something in this "hidden" pattern....

For Come, Follow Me yesterday I read Ezekiel 3:17 (notice the "3" and "7"):

"I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: ... give them warning from me."

Today I read this in Ezekiel 33:7:

"I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me."

This pattern (and the numbers!) remind me of 1 Nephi 3:7 and 1 Nephi 17:3:

"I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."

"And thus we see that the commandments of God must be fulfilled. And if it so be that the children of men keep the commandments of God he doth nourish them, and strengthen them, and provide means whereby they can accomplish the thing which he has commanded them"

I have made thee a watchman

We are blessed to have a prophet of God on the earth today to serve as a watchman and to warn us of danger.

"I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: ... give them warning from me."
 - Ezekiel 3:17

The heavens were opened

One of the great lessons of Ezekiel is that God can visit us in captivity.  He knows where we are.  If we turn to Him, He will be there.

"As I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, ... the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God."
 - Ezekiel 1:1

Yet will he have compassion

"Yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his mercies."
 - Lamentations 3:32

The Lord is good unto them that wait for him

Lamentations is so sad and yet serves as a merciful warning to us all.  Jesus Christ will show us tenderloving kindness if we will seek Him.  This has always been true in my life, even during the difficult trials.

"The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him."
 - Lamentations 3:25
