Our bones can live

Perhaps the most colorful prophetic vision in the Old Testament is Ezekiel's vision of the valley of dead bones rising up and forming a great army.  I happened to have recently talked to a homeless man who lived in a tunnel.  In many ways, he was like the people of Old Testament times, depending on prophets to lead them to God, depending on God to rescue them in this life.  We, as Christians, do not live in a tunnel.  We have great peripheral vision.  We have an individual relationship with God and can see far beyond this life.  We know that spiritually, not physically, and with God's forgiveness, we can rise over and over, like dry bones.
