A Question of Depth

     My youngest daughter can come up with some questions that blow your mind! She is very inquisitive and will keep you on your toes. We had a wonderful day today. We attended an awesome church service, ate breakfast and decided to walk the trails at the River. It was beautiful. There was an awesome breeze blowing and we just enjoyed walking and talking. At one point, we sat down on steps right at the waters edge and just enjoyed feeling the breeze and taking in all of God's beauty. I thanked Him for such a wonderful, beautiful day and I felt so at peace that it was hard to leave. I literally could' ve balled up on the bank and took a nap while listening to the water and feeling the breeze.
     Anyway, when we got home, we were so THIRSTY!! We got tall glasses of cold ice water and we were both on our 2nd glass when she asked me "Ma!Why does water have no taste but be so GOOD!!??" LOL. It tasted so good that we could not get seem to get enough but after our fill we were so relaxed and immensely satisfied!  I thought about it and I told her because it is REFRESHING. It quenches the thirst that we had. Completely. I began to think on the Spirit of God. I thought about how we do not see the Holy Spirit but, He's there always, He gives us times of refreshing that we could not live without. Water has no taste, no real natural color but is refreshing and we can't live without water and at times, we just feel like we cannot get enough!  I see why Jesus always related the Spirit to Water. As I sat out beside the river today in perfect peace, watching it flow, I felt that refreshing to my soul. I can go on and on....
