Sept 26 - Water

Water. The very substance of life. Awesome, powerful, soothing, terrifying water. Did you know there is the same amount of water on the Earth’s surface today as there was “in the beginning”?

As adults we can find soul-healing comfort in the sight and sound of crashing waves. As children of God, we relish the life-giving, restoring droplets that marked us forever and welcomed us to the family of believers.

Remember your baptism as you:

Lift your face to the heavens to catch a drop of rain on your tongue.

Use a cool cloth to wipe the brow of an ailing loved one.

Splash through puddles with giggling children.

Be courageous in your faith, allowing the waters of baptism to change your life. 


from “Splish, Splash, Trickle, Drip” by Kathy J. Magnus
