THE FOUNTAIN OF OUR LIFE!

“For you are the fountain of life, the light by which we see.”Psalm 36:9

I am sure that most have heard of the fountain of youth. It is a life-giving water that helps to make us return to our youth and extend our lives. We all know that there is no fountain of youth. However, there is a fountain of life. Jesus accepted a mission from God the Father that allowed us to regain our youth an extend our lives. Our God in heaven is gracious and loving. He gave us the greatest gift possible, Jesus Christ! His mighty gift to us, Jesus, is the source of living water. It is our acceptance of him that allows us to be reborn and to begin our lives over. We are able to begin a life that is full of power, love and joy. He is our guiding light as we travel the roads of this world. When we fall, he picks us up. When we get lost in the forest, he is there to put us back on the correct path. He is with us to wipe away tears of sadness and replace them with thoughts of joy and happiness. He died so that we could live. The difference is that we are NOT to live a selfish and deceitful life but to live our lives for Jesus. Our words and our actions are to reflect Jesus at every turn. No, there is no fountain of youth! However, we have been given something bigger and better. We have been given Jesus, our fountain of life! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
