Okay, so you guys have probably noticed that I have started a new wring rhythm, a good 2-4 posts a week. A couple weeks ago, I took a challenge that was given to me by a fellow blogger. That challenge is called 5-minute Friday. It has been amazing to see the topic that is chosen and the different takes that God has placed in each and every one of us writing about it.
I have been thinking for a while that I wanted to personally choose a day of the week and leave that day for a similarly themed blog. I thought about each day of the week and only one kept coming back to mind. That's when I heard it, a familiar-secular-well known phrase. I tossed it in my head over and over before giving it too much more thought as to what it would look like. This was about two weeks ago.
The more I thought about what I wanted to do. The more the term "Thirsty Thursday" came through my head. After second guessing if that's what I really wanted to do, I decided to pray about it. (Yes, honestly prayer wasn't an initial reaction like I SO want it to be). The more I prayed the more I felt God pressing me to do so. Evidently there is something I need to learn in this area.
So here's what it's going to look like for me, starting next Thursday, August 18. I am going to be taking a look at the scriptures that refer to God, Jesus, and/or the Holy Spirit as the only thing to quench my thirst. I hope you'll join me in this journey, however long it may be. For now I will leave you with this song, as I will be using it as our theme song throughout this journey. We'll search into the stories Kathleen talks about in the weeks and months to come as well.
Praying that we all will be blessed in the end with these discoveries that He is the Living Water and that He can quench our eternal thirsts, which in turn, could very well take care of our physical thirst as well.
Blessings friends
With all that has come and gone, it's time for rediscovery. This place is a step toward doing so. Time to rediscover the Lover of my soul. Rediscover the draw writing has always had on my heart. Rediscover who I am and have been made to be despite anything life throws my way. In this place we will do real, we will do fresh, we will do life-real life-together.
