Wednesday Living Water

His Word, written for instruction so that we might have hope. How has your daily drink into His Word been? We will always take something with us, something that will mold us and shape us. A moment taken will never be a waste of time because He will be there to meet with you. Yes, you! He waits!


Scripture-

For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction,
so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures
we might have hope.
Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement
grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,
so that with one accord you may with one voice
glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Romans 15: 4-6
