 “Your Life…A Garden of Refreshment!”
 

refreshed

by Dona Hake

 

Isaiah 58:11 (ERV)

 

“The Lord will always lead you and satisfy your needs in dry lands.

He will give strength to your bones.

You will be like a garden that has plenty of water,

like a spring that never goes dry.”

 

 

As we draw upon the living water from abiding in His presence, fellowshipping with Him, and reading His Word, WE WILL be those that are full of strength from above. WE SHALL be as gardens with a plenteous supply of of God’s living water.  Are you ready to share that strength and holy spring from above with those around you today?    Let us be thankful that the water He gives is the only water that will quench those that are needy and thirsty.   I love how this scripture in Isaiah says that we will be “like a garden that has plenty of water, a spring that never goes dry.”  No matter how much we draw upon it, those waters will continue to flow toward us to meet our every need!  The only requirement is that we continue to seek Him and draw upon that river of life that proceeds from Him.

 

This type of abundance is likened to the scripture I shared a few days ago.   We will have so much falling from above that it will spill over into our laps!   This abundance is not just for our survival alone but it is there for us to give.  God desires to see us active in doing good for others from a heart of faith and love.

 

Today I encourage you to think about the abundance in your life.   Praise Him for how He meets your needs, and the many testimonies that you carry in your heart of His faithfulness.  Seek opportunities to  look to be a blessing in someone’s life.  I pray that the life of Jesus within will touch someone today.   Expect the unexpected opportunities to be part of the greater work He desires to do through us in Jesus Name!
