Jesus said: Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I give them will never be thirsty. John 4:13
I was looking at a large pond of clear crystal water embedded in the paddock and surrounded by long stems of dry grass all gently swaying in the wind, and so it was for as far as my eye could see. But on the edge of the pond were tuffs of green grass obviously close enough to the water to be fed by it. As I looked I thought this is a modern day parable. Central to our Christian life is the living water offered by Jesus that sustains us so we can move out into the barren dry land where others are searching for that life giving water, or need to be refreshed, taking with us 'drops' from the great pond we know so well, to quench the thirst of others. Who might you be taking 'drops' of the life giving water to today as you go out into the world to 'love and serve the Lord?'
Jehovah - shalom- the Lord is peace.
Anne, servant of the Lord.
