Splash in the Water & Link-Up

This picture I took at Balaton shows that young and old alike enjoy water
We did ministry last month near Hungary’s most famous tourist attraction, Lake Balaton, the largest body of fresh water in Europe. (it’s 78 km long).

Hungarians and Germans flock to Balaton to swim, sail, boat, water ski, parasail, and fish.


Water is such a vital part of our lives:
  • Our body needs it to function properly.
  • We need it for cleansing.
  • It's necessary for our food supply.
  • And we love to play in it.
Christ calls Himself Living Water (John 4:10-14) because He symbolizes all of these things in the spiritual realm.

So today, let's: 
  • Drink deep of His Word and nourish our souls.
  • Bathe in repentance and be cleansed of our sins.
  • Splash in the comfort and peace that only Christ offers.

P.S. Dear Readers, please pray for me. We're traveling and preparing to do ministry and spend time in Budapest and I fell yesterday and injured my leg/knee. Please pray for speedy healing as I need to do a lot of walking here. Thanks!


My features this week...if you'd like to be considered, be sure to display the B&BB button somewhere visible on your blog or posts.

Lori shares about life with a large family (click image to check out her blog). In her post Before and After the Storm she shares recent storm damage on their farm and ends by saying: I am thankful for God's protection and for His mighty display of power...“Who then is this, that he commands even winds and water, and they obey him?” Luke 8:25

 And my second feature is my friend Lori Hatcher's Post About Lust. This practical post addresses a broader perspective than usually assigned to lust. Lori is the author of a recently released home school encouragement book called Joy in the Journey.


So please check out these posts if you didn't last week and bless the authors by leaving a comment and becoming a follower if you'd like.

  4. I've found out how much we use water this week. We had to have our well pulled and repaired. We've been letting our water run to get rid of the black soil in it. I love splashing in God's water!

    Praying for your knee, Gail. God must be preparing to do great things through you.
