After
Monday’s blog entry on the idea of fullness of Christ in me overflowing to
others, friend Jennifer B. sent me (9/5) this great poster, John 7:38, from a
Broken People facebook page. Today’s on-line devotional was on “Rivers of
flowing living water.” Thus, the head’s up.

My
notes:
- Such a river is all about the Source….
- If we have received His fullness, “rivers of living water” will flow out of us, reaching in blessing even “to the end of the earth” (Acts 1:8)
- We have nothing to do with the outflow
- God rarely allows a soul to see the blessing that he is to others
- A persistent river often has to overcome obstacles.
- Keep paying attention to the Source… God can either take you around the obstacle or maybe remove it all together. Wonder if sometimes He leaves it there until we learn the life lesson He has for us?
In
conclusion, Oswald Chambers says it perfectly.
His words are often a real heads-up for me!Think of the healing and far-reaching rivers developing and nourishing themselves in our souls! God has been opening up wonderful truths to our minds, and every point He has opened up is another indication of the wider power of the river that He will flow through us. If you believe in Jesus, you will find that God has developed and nourished in you mighty, rushing rivers of blessing for others.
