Relationships of The Heart w/ Nancy

Come To The Water
Date Posted: September 19, 2010

As I listened to a song called, "The River" by Grace Williams, I recall my time in Africa. The humidity and temperature were very high. Everywhere I went I had 1 or 2 large bottles of water with me. During my first few hours in country, with not much time to spare to prepare for my scheduled time for preaching and teaching, the heat began to overwhelm me. My plane had arrived late, which meant I had no time to adjust to the new culture, sounds, and most of all the temperature. Even when I would stand in one place I would perspire endlessly. It was in this country, that water became an endless desire for me in the stifling heat as my physical body tried to adjust.

Although I am no longer in Africa, there are times in my life that I am tired and weary. I begin to have a hunger and thirst for the heavenly waters. Today is one of those days. It is a longing for water that is difficult to explain to someone who has never experienced this kind of touch from God. It is a touch from God, through his Holy Spirit, where this water quenches the thirst of our souls.

A Call To Us- Isaiah 55:1-3;

1-Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.

2Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and your soul will delight in the richest of fare.

3Give ear and come to me;
hear me, that your soul may live.
I will make an everlasting covenant with you,
my faithful love promised to David.

He is calling us today to come to the river. It flows from heaven. It is flowing to the earth, to lodge itself in our heart. Will you come?
