March 19, 2010 ~ Living Water

Has your life been flooded with God's goodness?


Today's Scripture:

Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty water,...I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

Isaiah 43:16-21

Have you ever traveled to Arizona? Thee is a place called Montezuma's Castle, a cliff dwelling , over looking a cool stream, not far from the desert between Phoenix and Sedona, off Highway I-17. Those Native Americans knew well a good place to live, grow their crops, and flourish hundreds of years ago.

So, God calls us to follow him through the desert of our lives to drink from the living water of His Love. We should keep our eye on the Living Water of Jesus as our Savior. He is giving us an oasis of abundant life.

Selah people' and friends with all of the busyness of school and work, friends and family, computers, Internet, texting and TV how do you keep your eye on the Living Water, Jesus?

How can you lead your neighbors toward this living water by the way you live your life, and love the Lord?

What do you do to listen to hear God's voice in the desert, the lonely, troubled times to follow his calling toward toward this living water?

One thing I want us to think about as we move closer to Easter in this season of Lent is when water the seeds that were planted in the past two weeks in anticipation for Spring. Purchase an Easter lily or other Easter flowers to fragrance your home. Give thanks for fresh running water that in so many parts of the world is just a dream that we all take for granted. Try to take a moment to write a short prayer thanking God for the abundant life that comes from the Living Water. If you feel like making a joyous noise then Sing the hymn:" Take my Life and Let it Be Consecrated Lord to Thee."

"Remember today and always that each of us that accepted Christ as Lord and Savior has been washed with the blood of the Lamb and are called to share the living water of Christ. Do something today to help yourself and others find their way through the wilderness we call life and help give them a river of living water during those dry desert places in life."
