Here we go with a new blog. I had a vision in my head when i woke up, with the words "the Well" on my mind.
Not sure what that means. I know that in the Bible, there is a lot of language about wells. When I was a kid, the idea of wells was kind of scary...it seemed like you might plunge into the unknown, where you would surely drown. I'm not a swimmer, so that image did not bode well with me! We did have a well in the back yard, somewhat like the picture on this blog. I never really went over there, for aforementioned reasons.
Now that I'm older, I am less afraid. I realize that there are many things in this world that are scary. Even things that LOOK on the surface to be safe to enter into, might not be so. So I rely on the Lord, the "well of salvation" to take me into the unknown, where He surely keeps His living water.
Ahhhhh. I am praying for others to jump in and join me.
