And the hand of the LORD
     was there upon me,
and He said to me,
"Arise,
go forth into the plain,
and there I will
       speak with you."

             Ezekiel 3. 22

(Even when it does not
     make sense to me,
even when it is
   a place I would not
   choose myself to go,
He whispers, "Follow Me."
In what I see a dead-end
   or a barren place,
God places
   His divine appointments.)
