The Main Thing

Have you ever read something that just stuck with you? Maybe it’s a book or an article or a website or a bible verse, but there was something about it that just made it stick. This week we camped out on a part of the bible that did just that. It stuck with me. I’ve read it before but there was something different about this time. This time my heart was in the right place to hear it and my soul was just dry enough that this was the water it needed. I pray it meets you where you are as well.

We get it out of the tap and in bottles. We can filter and add to it. We color it and sweeten it. Some like lemons in it while others don’t. The point is water is critical to life!
