Water

Revelation 22:1 KJV
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

The Bible both begins and ends with some description of a river or rivers.
• Rivers flowed through and framed the garden
• A river divided the Promised Land from the people of God and was parted for Joshua
• Naaman was told to dip seven times in the Jordan River.
• Jesus was baptized by John in the Jordan
• Jesus offered the woman at the well and river of life and
• Revelation 22 says there is a pure river flowing from God's throne.

Water is, as much as any part of our being, the foundation of life.
• Our bodies are made mostly of water
• Water is still a major form of transportation
• Battle are still fought on the water and
• Water still has the power to destroy cities, has done so several times in the last few years.

God has sovereign control over this life giving commodity both now and it eternity.

And it leads me to trust in and look toward Him alone.
