2010.06.14 Monday Morning!

Greetings and best wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian, a friendly Church of the faith, located in Vinita, Oklahoma.
 
Fifty years ago, my wife and I bought a log cabin on the shore of Schroon Lake, NY, in the Adirondacks.  We lived simply in this summer retreat, which had never been modernized.
 
There was an old well from which we drew our cool, refreshing water.  The day came when we decided to move into the 20th century.  Electricity replaced kerosene lanterns, running water gave us indoor plumbing.  No longer was it necessary to carry water from the old well.
 
A few summers passed when I decided one day to inspect the well.  To my surprise, it was dry!  The well had run without failing for many years, yet now it was dry.  There was no water because the well had not been used.
 
Our souls are like that well.  What happened to that well can happen to us if we don't use God's Living Water.
 
There is no need for your soul or mine to be dry.  We can draw from the depths of God's Living Water in fellowship with Christ and his Church!
 
Don't suffer from spiritual dehydration!
