I can visualize this. My hideous self dissolving in a flowing steam of living water. It is a refreshing thought.

We had a guest pastor at my little co-op this morning. His message sounded something like the above quote. The Lord doesn't look at our mistakes.
The pastor used Psalm 1 for the scripture and he gave a sweet little analogy of a tree and all the care required from the gardener for the tree to flourish. The tree itself cannot flourish from its own efforts.
Have a lovely weekend and thank you again!
