Living Waters

This is a picture of a small waterfall in Watkins Glen State Park in NY.  What’s kind of neat is that with a good camera you can slow the shutter speed down so that it captures the movement of the water over the falls, and that’s what I did in this shot.  I think it looks cool.  Jesus told the women at the well that he had living water to give.  As we drink in of the living water of God’s Spirit and love, Jesus said that this living water within us becomes a fresh, bubbling spring.  It’s in the movements of our day, and in the everyday rhythms of our lives, that this bubbling spring splashes out on to others as our lives intersect with theirs.  That’s what’s cool about this journey of faith, the reality of God’s love is captured and conveyed through ordinary people in the everyday circumstances of life…and that’s the beauty of it!
