Dear God,

In reading the psalms this morning, there was a line, "All fountains come from you."  I paused and reread it again.  All fountains, hmmm.

I loved the line because suddenly I was filled up with times that fountains of living water found their way to my dry, weary soul.  When I felt limp, worn out and lifeless, that water revived and restored me.  I realized there was something very special about that water that was much more than agua.  When it came, it gushed like a forty-foot waterfall spilling out, over and around me.  I drank and drank until I was more than full.  It penetrated every living cell and brought me back to life.  

Only you

can fill us

with life-giving water,

Holy God.

When we

are thirsty,

you offer us drink,

not just

any drink,

but the drink

of eternity.

You renew us

to rise

and live again.

Thank you,

Merciful God.

Love, Andrea
