You see they placed him in the window for all the world to see, but those who placed him there were the first to forget. They loved him in the beginning, they were passionate about drinking him in and using him whenever they needed and he didn't mind being used because that's what he was there for.
It was such a hot summer day that even the birds couldn't sing because their throats were so very dry. They all rushed in for water, but instead of the glass being full of water, it was completely empty. For they left him for all the world to see and for the sun to dry its content. They all were starving for water, but he was no where in sight. He had left them because, they neglected him. This family is now no longer with us.
THEME: We as Christians tend to take the "Living Water" that is Jesus Christ for granted. We have this great excitement in the beginning that seems to get covered by apathy and the world around us. It is when it will be too late that we want to run to Christ, who is and should be our survival. I am speaking of us who call Christ Lord and yet do not believe with our hearts, this is blasphemy, and the only losers will be us. We must take this relationship with Christ very seriously, he is our breathe, our life, our water. Drink up!!
