Chapters

The Holy Spirit here is described as rivers of living water. He brings you to life. He refreshes you. Wherever the river flows, life thrives. Wherever the river goes, there is a flourishing, there is a fruitfulness. And that's what the presence of the Holy Spirit does in our lives. Water cleanses. He cleans you up. He cleans your mind. He cleans your words. He cleans your behaviors. Water quenches. Only the presence of the Holy Spirit can satisfy the deepest longing of the human heart. He causes that thirst to be quenched so that you're not seeking that fulfillment in the world, but you seek it in his presence. He refreshes you in those moments of life where you feel like giving up, where you feel like you've done all the work that you can do, where you feel like you're spinning your wheels in frustration, but you have no forward movement, where you feel the weight of responsibility resting on your shoulders. He refreshes you. You feel the heat of the sun on you. And like every step in the Spirit takes all the strength you have, in those moments when you most feel like giving up, that's when the rivers of living water wash over you and the Holy Spirit refreshes you.
