Kingdom Thoughts

The Life Jesus wants for us . . . Drinking of the Spirit and allowing Streams of the Spirit to flow out of us to refresh others. Connecting the words of Jesus with Paul's appeal:

John 7:38 Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.

1 Corinthians 12:13 For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-- whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free-- and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.

We cannot live without water and this life source can flow out of us, though we are not the Source. Amazing. The drinking is also fascinating - the English translations agree on 'drink', there is also the concept of irrigation and saturation in the Greek. This theme runs all through the Scriptures! Abram blessed to be a blessing to all the nations in Genesis 12. Jesus sanctifying himself, so that they too will be sanctified. And thus the Kingdom comes.
