Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him. — John 7:38
Dig deep enough inside, and you will find the indestructible you — the you created and imagined by the mind of God. The you that will live forever, strong in the Father’s joy, rich with the Savior’s tears, afraid of nothing, understanding everything.
How do you find that hero within? How do you dig through the dirt, wash away the mud to reveal the diamond deep down?
The old way of trying harder, the shame and frustration gospel only rearranges the clay, but the diamond never comes to the light, the river is not released. We need a new and different way to submit to the Lordship of Christ. We need to rediscover the surprisingly Biblical key to connecting with God so that what we once called revival becomes simply … life.
This journey takes us backwards, not forwards, into what we think are the darkest places in our hearts. But it is there in the helpless, hopeless, neediest places of our soul that we run smack into the heart of God. The darkness we so feared is replaced by dazzling light. Christ our Savior has appeared. In all our weakness, He has been made strong. Where we had nothing to offer, the River of His love rushes out to nourish all that is dry and parched within.
The sons and daughters of God are being revealed to this generation. The River is being released.
