RIVER WATER
Journalist Hal Boyle (1911-1974) wrote on certainty:
“What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn’t have any doubt—it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn’t want to go anywhere else.”

We also may be sure of where we are going and we have a River that does not want to go anywhere else:
“Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’” (When he said “living water,” he was speaking of the Spirit, who would be given to everyone believing in him.”) (John 7:37-39) NLT
May the River of Life make us restful and secure as we follow our leader… Jesus.
“Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” Jesus
