Good morning, Maureen. Please remember this is the internet, you do not see the kind eyes with tears and smiles through the postings but they are there.

People becomes upset, passionate in their writing, frustrated that the only help they are giving is from the other side of the monitor.

Your goal is to find your beloved Zeke and ease the pain in your heart. Our goal at YT is to stand by your side, allow you to lean on us for strength.

Warmly, Deborah

Yes, that's the way I understand it, Maureen felt it was not the grandmas house, but how can we be sure, legally? We can't give up now. I also thought "we" were suppose to call the MPD and talk to investigations on Monday, I assume this didn't happen. Is this because Maureen feels we are not on the right track? There just has to be a way to trace him (Zeke). How about going all the way back to the original "cleaning service women", that the mailman saw with Zeke...This is just too frustrating for words...But I will keep on saying my prayers, Zeke can and will be found...safe.

I too am saddened by recent events on this thread. But 2 things that Maureen has said continue to ring in my heart.

One is how she named Zeke – using the name Ezekiel from the Bible, and shortening it to Zeke.

Secondly, Maureen said she feels God is trying to show her some things through the loss of Zeke.

(In light of yesterday’s events on this thread – maybe God is trying to teach everyone something.)

I have been drawn to the book of Ezekiel, based on Maureen’s comments. Maybe we should all be reading this somewhat complicated prophetic book.

I want to share a few things from the book of Ezekiel.

First: Ezekiel means “God will strengthen”
(I am praying God's strength for you Maureen)

Practical application of Ezekiel: The Book of Ezekiel calls us to join in a fresh and living encounter with the God of Abraham, Moses and the prophets.
We must be overcomers or we will be overcome.
Ezekiel challenged us to: experience a life changing vision of God's power, knowledge, eternal presence and holiness; let God direct us; comprehend the depth of and commitment to evil that lodges in each human heart; to recognize that God holds his servants responsible for warning wicked men of their peril; to experience a living relationship with Jesus Christ, who said that the new covenant is to be found in His blood.

What to do if we really want to help other people in their troubles
We must recognize certain things. They are important things. We must have pity and sympathy for them. We must share their suffering. Read Ezekiel 3:15, 16. He says: ‘I sat where they sat…’

For a whole week, Ezekiel did nothing. He noticed the awful state of his own people. They did not share his trust and confidence in God. He just sat among them. He shared their pain and despair. Ezekiel had no easy solution for their situation.

We want to be of use to the Lord. We want to serve those in trouble. Then we must learn to be quiet. We must not speak immediately. Charles Lamb, a famous English writer who lived from 1775–1834, once asked his friend a question. ‘Have you ever heard me preach?’ (This usually means to speak God’s word in public. It can also mean to tell people what they ought to do.) The friend’s reply must have made him feel very upset. The friend said ‘I have never heard you do anything else.’ We must learn to listen.

We here on YT must learn to listen, really listen

I'm praying Zeke is found soon. I believe in Miracles. My prayers are with you Maureen.
