SHALLOW PUDDLES

ShallowPuddlesYesterday we reminded each other about digging deep wells. Away with shallow wells. Away with sitting on the fence--dabbling with the world and having a little bit of God when we need Him.

The land God brings us into is a land of deep springs. Deuteronomy 8:7 says: “For the LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills.” You’ll be blessed by reading the rest of the chapter too.

God does not intend us to step around in shallow puddles, but draw from His living fountains and deep springs. The deeper we go into the pure water of the wells of God, the more we have to give to our family and to others. We have nothing to give from shallow puddles.

What about your family life? Do you seem to be always driving your children from this thing to that, rushing from one shallow puddle to the next? You have to take time to take your family to the deep wells. You have to reorganize your life to make time to gather the family for prayer and reading God’s Word each morning and evening. You have to take times for special times of prayer. You have to take time during the day to drop seeds of divine truth. You have to be quieted and filled from the deep wells yourself first.

Jesus said: “If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and DRINK (not sip). and he that believeth on me, as the Scripture hath said, out of his belly show flow rivers of living water” (John 7:37-39).

May you be a deep drinking family,

Nancy Campbell
