Living Water

In the spring of May 2002, the island of Guam was in the midst of a water shortage. It had been a dry year, and even in the tropics there are times when fresh water can be hard to come by. The need had become so critical that our aquifer from which our deep wells drew their water was many feet below the normal averages. In fact, some of the wells were bringing up brackish saltwater from the ocean leaking into the aquifer. The need for water was driven home to me and I began to think about our need, not just for physical water, but more importantly, for spiritual water that can only come from our Lord Jesus. I began to search the Scriptures to see what the Word says about "Living Water." You will notice that most of these Pacific Breezes have something to do with water. I trust these will encourage your heart and help you grow.
