TAKE AND DRINK

WATERCOLOR SKETCH BY PAUL BOECHER – WORDS BY KATHY BOECHER

The interlacing vines hold substantial fruit.

It is a wonder the grapes cling so tightly to the vine.

As Jesus told His followers, He is the vine and we are the branches.

Today, let’s consider feeding the thirsty with the first fruits of His offering to us.

He lifts us up from the depths of hell.

He refreshes us with the water of His Word.

He holds us ever so tight.

He crushed temptation.

He suffered pain and anguish.

He gave His blood.

He died and was buried in a secure tomb.

His lifeless body continued to do battle even in the grave.

He defeated the devil.

He rose from death.

He will come again to take away all sadness.

Drink the fruit of His salvation.

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
