Hydration
Waters will spring up in the desert,
and streams in the wilderness. ~ Isaiah 35:6 (CEB)
If you are thirsty, come! If you want life-giving water, come and take it. It’s free! ~ Revelation 22:17 (CEV)
KEY IDEA:
God wants to give you refreshment.
PRAYER:
Thank you, Lord, for sending the "water" that refreshes our souls. But even when I am thirsty sometimes I do not stop from my busyness long enough to receive your refreshments. Please help me to remember how important it is to stay hydrated. I'm going to continue to receive your living water so that I do not become dehydrated and get sick. Amen.
