Fountain of Life - Psalm 36: 5-9

Thy mercy, O Lord is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
Thy righteosness is like the great mountains; thy judgements are a great deep; O Lord, thou preserveth man and beast.
How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust in the shadow of  thy wings.
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
For with thee is the fountain of life: and in thy light we see light.





Lord, the beauty of the earth reflects your glory.  It's at once profound and peaceful and filled with awe.      These verses describe the bounty of a life who finds it's source in God. When taken as a whole the Psalm depicts a life without God and one with God and ends with David pleading that God would keep Him in His way. And so this is my prayer today. Lord lead me in Your ways. May I live in Your house, may I drink from your river of delights and may your fountain of living water stream from me today. Like an artesian well springing from the mountain of God, may your light, life and love flow out to the thirsty.
