Write any phrases from the selected Bible verses that speak to you:
Meditate on a flourishing tree next to a flowing river. The streams of water equal both God’s word and His Spirit nourishing our hearts—we need Him and His word within our hearts the way His creation needs a consistent water supply within roots, trunks, and branches.
Is your soul weary and dry? In what ways?
Are you getting enough Living Water? Explain its benefits when you do.
Write a prayer using the daily verses as a reference:
Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us?" James 4:5
Dear Lord,
You are perfectly jealous! You desire to occupy our whole heart with your pure love. Help us to rid ourselves of the things that pull us away from you. Give us an undivided heart, one that yearns for you the way you yearn for us. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
