SWEET WATER
Doth a fountain at the same place send forth sweet water and bitter? James 3:11
God wants us to be fountains of sweet water, flowing fountains of goodness, and springs of health and wholeness. This sweetness must begin in the heart. The roots of bitterness, envying and strife must be washed out through confession and forgiveness. Ministry can only happen with sweet waters flowing out of our hearts, creating rich and fertile soil for souls. As our hearts are renewed under the blood of Jesus, our tongues shall be governed by the law of kindness--and we shall be living temples, like fountains, springing up sweet, sweet water.
Today, Let us be fountains of sweet water.
