The Deepest Thirst!





"Hey, want a bottle of water for the road?" 


We've had some brutal heat this summer mixed in with a lot of rain.  It's on the hot days that I always ask the mailman, the UPS person, the guy hired to cut the neighbor's yard--"hey, how about some water?"  One FEDEX person in particular looked like he hit an oasis! These people dash through through their tasks because they must meet a schedule.  Suddenly, somebody recognizes them as a person.  Let me tell you.  They already have found the living water that Jesus talks about.  In the deepest places of the spirit--we need to be recognized and affirmed to be reminded of our God given worth--made in God's image.  And by the way, I drank deeply also by offering the water and recognizing who was standing before me at the door.  "Inasmuch as you have done it unto the least of these--you have done it to me."  (Matt 25:40ff) 

Try it just once.
See what thirst it quenches in you!
