Rivers

July 13, 2020 by Laurel Burton Leave a Comment

Rivers have always been important throughout history. They are mentioned many times in the Bible. The Garden of Eden was located between rivers. Jesus was baptized in a river. There’s a river in Heaven where the Tree of Life stands. People in history have always tried to settle near a river. Towns were built on or near rivers.

Having water is a powerful tool and a necessity.

I am reminded of the song by the group Needtobreathe called Washed by the Water.

One verse says:

Even if the Earth crumbles under my feet
Even if the ones I love turn around and crucify me
I won’t never ever let you down
I won’t fall
I won’t fall
I won’t fall as long as you’re around me
.

Do you ever feel as if the ones you love are around to crucify you? We won’t fall as long as we stick with God. As the chorus says:

Even when the rain falls
Even when the flood starts rising
‘Cause even when the storm comes
I am washed by the water
.

But we have to be washed by the water.
