I was just listening to a song the other day that talked about the River of God and how it gave them joy and set them dancing. My initial response was, "Why would a river give you joy and make you want to dance?" I was thinking in modern days and not in bible days where they lived every day in survival mode. A river means water and life and sustenance! That's enough to make me dance and have job. I then thought of a scripture that I really like that says: There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy [place] of the tabernacles of the most High. Psalms 46:4. Thank God for natural water and spiritual water! <strong>Karen, such a beautiful scripture that is so relevant to this discussion. Thank you. Beautiful post!

A great parallel to our spiritual life as well. I wonder what our ground (spiritual soil) looks like in Gods' eyes? <strong>Kevin, I fear my ground sometimes resembles the most arid desert.
