020505 Series: Flow

To close the gap between our hopes and our actual experience, we fall prey to many spiritual traps. Sometimes we try harder. Sometimes we pretend things are better than they are. We make rededications, or change churches, or seek spiritual highs. After a while, we may even give up hope.

But if the Bible is true and God has provided for our thirst, there has to be water somewhere. A spiritual river ? a fountain of endless spiritual refreshment ? runs through life, according to Jesus. We must find that flow, and step into it. It is not something we can manufacture, but like ocean waves, God keeps sending us one opportunity after another.

In the coming weeks, this series will help us learn and experience how to tap into God?s power, drink deeply of His living water, and change from the inside out.
