When I read this scripture this morning, it was almost like a slap in the face. My first thought was to sneer at the scoffers and then I realized that I have, on more than one occasion, allowed some little idiosyncrasy, some little flaw, some little minute detail distract me. The most recent occasion was in viewing a ‘prophetic painting,’ and rather than looking at it with the eyes of Jesus, and seeing his presence there, I was finding some little flaw that distracted me from his message to me. We are spiritually connected to God/Jesus, but we are also human. And there are going to be times when that human side of us oversteps the spiritual. My prayer today, “Lord, I am a believer. Please let those streams of living water flow out of my heart that I might see you and worship you in spirit and in truth. Amen.”
