Dig Out Your Pond

PondEvery summer, the spring rains filled the pond on our Maryland farm with a lot of mud, and it needed to be cleaned out. The neat thing is, more earth we dug out, the deeper and bigger the pond would become. That’s because it was fed by an underground spring – the more dirt we got rid of, the more the pond would fill with water. We could actually make the pond whatever size we wanted. And you know what? We are very much like that. Jesus said in John chapter 7, “Whoever believes in me… streams of living water will flow from within him.” Yes, we have a spring of living water filling us, but sometimes there’s not a lot to fill. We’ve made the size of our spiritual life (our pond, as it were) so small from so much dirt and disobedience. So today friend, dig out the dirt in your life that doesn’t belong. And just watch the Spirit fill your life!
