The Perspective of the Saints
Ezekiel had a hard job to do, so before he started the Boss showed him a nice little training video. The big screen of the sky opened before him and behold! he saw mind-boggling beings and the radiance of the glory of God from on high. After this, he was sent forth with a new understanding of Who he served as he entered on his difficult way.
We may not be prophets of yore—and who would want to be? Tough gig! But we all have our paths to tread and they are not always easy. Perhaps a refresher course on the transcendent beauty and downright terrifying majesty of our Creator would put some steel in our spine (or emery in our foreheads, as Ezekiel has it). We are, after all, only very small moving pieces in the midst of his master plan of wheeling orbs.
