All My Fountains

This morning as I was spending time in the word, a loved piece of scripture from a time gone by was once again revisited. Sometimes scriptures remind us of a time when...they speak remembrance , they speak needed encouragement.

Psalm 87:7 says, "As they make music they will sing, 'All my fountains are in you.'"

All my fountains are in you. Have you ever pondered what that means? Another translation says "the source of my life". All we are flows from God.

When I think of a fountain, I think about how there is a source that feeds it and there is a pressure that builds up inside that forces it to overflow. When it overflows it has a spray that when the wind blows it carries that spray to surrounding areas.

That is how God is in us. He is the very source that runs into our lives. The very essence of His presence and passion builds up within us till we get to the point that we can no longer contain it, and then it overflows and is released to those around us.

Everything we have need of is found in Him. He is the ultimate source of completion. He is the very well spring we have desire of.

May everything He is build up in our inmost beings and then may His greatness be released to all those around us!
