Pastor John,
I love this life that Jesus has blessed us with. My heart was so full last night when I went to bed I couldn’t sleep. I kept having the sweetest thoughts.
I was talking to Jesus for different ones and then started thinking about the love we have one for another. I had this thought: when we speak kinds words to each other, or when we are given a gentle nudge in the right direction, or even a stern correction, a word of encouragement, or good godly sound advice, we need to take it in. We need to drink it and let it change us so we can grow and become one mind and one heart.
I thought wow, that is like the living water that Jesus gives us. He gives us this living water to pass to one another and to drink in! We all need each other, we can’t make it alone. Who would want to do this alone anyway?
My mind had images of a dry and desolate land, but how when we let the living water run and circulate through us how that land is not desolate anymore! That’s how I feel Pastor John…. I don’t feel desolate anymore! None of us are, because we have Jesus and he’s given us each other! What a happy thought!
Hope you have a good night!
Love you!
