The river...
Most of us have heard the saying “You can never step into the same river twice.” The water that was there is no longer. It has moved on. So true is that statement. That moment that we entered the water has also changed us. Not only has the river changed but so have we. We are cleansed by the water. Even if we leave the river some of the water clings to us. The water droplets cling to our skin and to our clothes. Everyone around us can see.
And so it is with God. Even the tiniest step into his living water cleanses us and we are never the same. Those around us who know us, know we have changed. They know without a doubt that we are not the same.
They see the light of God in our eyes. Those who know us best.
I pray that all manner of men jump into the arms of Jesus; this living water for our souls.
