Consider all the ways you use water every day. 

It is one of life’s necessities. 

You, like me, might even take for granted how much you use water.  

You use water when you flush the toilet, take a shower, brush your teeth…all just to get “ready” in the morning. 

Water is needed to brew coffee or tea and to prepare or cook your food. 

If you have ever had to turn off the water to your house or gone camping in a primitive spot then you might begin to be able to understand what was like for the Israelites. 

Despite modern advances, there are still people in the world who live without clean water to drink, cook or wash. 

It is also important to drink plenty of water for your body to run better because water for your bodies is like oil for your car. 

The challenge is to be more aware of the water you use and why you use it. 

Say a prayer of thanksgiving each time you use water, pray for those who don’t have clean water, ask God to help you trust in him to provide for you just like you rely on the water to come out of your faucet. 

Also try to drink the recommended amount of water and pray each time you go to fill up your cup. 

At first, drinking so much water will cause extra trips to the bathroom to use more water, but then your body adjusts; but the extra water equates to more time spent in prayer and perhaps through this experience you will adjust to having Christ with you more often too!
