3.16.18 – “The prophet spoke of “broken
cisterns” that would hold no water. As a child we remember those times when we
stayed in a home where the water supply came from a cistern which caught rain
water. The cistern required maintenance and repair from time to time to make
sure that it did not leak. “Thirsty souls” need refreshment. Is your “cistern”
in good repair so that when God sends the rain you’ll have water to share?” Vance Havner
My prayer today is for you to share the
living water with a thirsty soul.

Peter 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy;
whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark
place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
“Farmer Joe decided his injuries from the
accident were serious enough to take the trucking company (responsible for the
accident) to court. In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning
farmer Joe. "Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm
fine?," questioned the lawyer. Farmer Joe responded, "Well I'll tell
you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule Bessie into
the......." "I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer
interrupted, "just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of
the accident, 'I'm fine!'" Farmer Joe said, "Well I had just got
Bessie into the trailer and I was driving down the road..." The lawyer
interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish the fact
that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the
scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he is trying
to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the
question." By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's
answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about
his favorite mule Bessie." Joe thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well
as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer
and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran
the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown into one
ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't
want to move. However, I could hear ole Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she
was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear
Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her he
took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came across
the road with his gun in his hand and looked at me. He said, "Your mule
was in such bad shape I had to shoot her. How are you feeling?" ChristiansUnite.Com
