Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

                                                                The Life-Giving Stream

It shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live.
                                                                                         ~ Ezekiel 47:9

  "The living waters in the prophet's vision flowed into the Dead Sea and carried life with them, even into that stagnant lake. Where grace goes, spiritual life is the immediate and everlasting consequence. Grace proceeds sovereignly according to the will of God, even as a river in all its windings follows its own sweet will; and wherever it comes it does not wait for life to come to it, but it creates life by its own quickening flow.
  Lord, let the living water flow to my family and  my friends, and let it not pass me by. I desire to bathe in it, to swim in it. I need life more abundantly. Come to me, till every part of my nature is vividly energetic and intensely active. Living God, fill me with Your own life, that, like Aaron's rod, I may bud and blossom and bring forth fruit unto Your glory." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
