COME – DRINK – LIVE!

Good Morning!

tflowing river        There is a River which flows from the Throne of God.

                                                         This River is called L I F E.

When I was young, a man who had returned from years of being a captive after the tragedies of World War II told me……………

.………This river is full of many things, sadness, loss, pain, griefs, disappointments and ‘stuff’ we do not want to encounter.  YET….. We must go on……..we must  live life to its FULLEST.       Many faiths, wash, worship. or make an IDOL of rivers.        However, this River of Life (spiritually)  we ALL  LIVE in. 

In the book of John….7, 37, 38 and 39 it is written.

On the last day of the great feast (prior to the crucifixion)…Jesus stood and cried out.

‘If anyone is thirsty let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in ME as the scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.   He spoke concerning the Holy Spirit whom those believing in Him were to receive when Jesus was ‘glorified’.

                                                            God the Holy Spirit….came.   THANK GOD! THANK GOD!

                          HE is the LIVING LIFE FLOW OF GOD today in our broken and grieving world.

It is a CHOICE!

Do we drink continuously from Him as we LIVE in this river?   

Does living water flow out of our hearts as we care, love, and simply LIVE WITH AND FOR HIM…….today?

From people  who have chosen to live in this River……… PRAYER comes!

May all the broken hearted, suffering and struggling people find PEACE.  May they live onwards with Hope and Purpose.

         a-MEN.

 

 

 

 

 

About Faye

I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions. I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
