I have been thinking about the "Fountain of Living Waters" this morning. The unending supply of fresh, cool, soothing, refreshing, spiritual water. Ready to be dipped into any time! What a privilege!
Tomorrow is Easter, yesterday was Good Friday. We are right in the middle of our Easter Celebration. The celebration of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. It seems rather odd to call the day Jesus was put to death "Good Friday" as you would think that it was anything but good for Him. Yet... it was what He came for. He was able to say "It is finished". A completed life well done. How do you feel when you do a job that you know has been done well? It was a horrible excruciating experience and He suffered horrendously. He was pleased with the end result. Then after defeating Hell He rose again! This was the final nail in Satan's "coffin" so to speak. Have you ever realized that the fires of Hell receive no "refreshing, soul quenching water" to put out the flames? Hmmm...
Now we have choices to make. Do we drink from His cup? Do we get a substitute for His refreshing water on our own? Do we run back and forth between the two, wearing ourselves out?
For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, and hewn themselves cisterns - broken cisterns that can hold no water. Jeremiah 2:13
This is the choice we again are faced with. Each morning when we get up... will it be "Fountain of Living Waters" today or man made waters today? If you've been sippin' from man made waters you've been sippin' from the wrong spirits! Drink from the Spirit who is the Fountain of Living Waters and be refreshed today!
Happy Resurrection Celebration, my friends! May He refresh you!
