Spring
As they make music they will sing, "All my fountains are in you." (NIH)Take a look at this verse from Psalm 87 again. JtM used Psalm 87 and particularly this verse, (7) for our office meeting devotional on Monday. Our springs are in God. Our hope is in God. It is humbling to remember (as JtM mentioned) that our hope is not in ourselves; it comes from God.
Singers and dancers give credit to Zion: "All my springs are in you!" (The Message)Singers and dancers alike say, ‘All my springs are in you.’ (NRSV)
Do we remember that? Think about the situations in which you find yourself; the situations in which I find myself. Do we remember that the solutions come from God?
Do we remember enough to listen for God?
In church, do we place our faith in God enough to believe that the solutions to the problems that our churches face will come from God? Do we believe it? Do we believe that our hope springs from God? Do we depend on it?
