Just Waiting to Be Caught


There will be large numbers of fish, because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows everything will live. (Ezekiel 47:9)

As we sat on the dock, preparing our fishing poles with bait, Mike's pole with the bobber hung slightly over the side of the dock. I looked down, and there were at least 5 fish underneath the pole. It was as if the fish were just waiting to be caught! It blew me away!

How many people cross our paths each and every day, just waiting to be drawn into the hope that we have? God purposes every heart that He creates to have a yearning to worship something. Unfortunately, in this life we have bought into the temporary cravings of this world that leave us discontent each and every time. Draw others toward your "pole" by putting off the "fragrance of Christ"! They will be so drawn, whether they understand what/WHO is drawing them, that they will want what you have on your pole!

Where the "Living Water" flows everything LIVES!
