We are lifting up what it means to be part of the Body of Christ, and for that I give profound thanks. Last time I shared the Word , I offered some images about the Bread of Life. This morning I want to do the same for Living Water. Living water feeds us. Living water carries us into the future.
Waves are more than the water they contain.
In the Hebrew Scripture for this week, Queen Esther made waves at the dinner table, and it saved the life of her people. She was daring, but she did not act alone. Her courageous act is a wonderful model of how the Spirit brings a community to life. It is from that in water we were from Long, long before we were from any creature. It has this throwing backward on itself So that the fall of most of it is always Raising a little, sending up a little.
