Living Water

Water rushes over rocks

roaring into a white foaming waterfall

filling in cracks and crevasses in the cliffside

like water fills in everything

and Jesus said he’s living water

and I think that means

faith fills everything

the cracks and crevasses of our minds

it makes things real that we just can’t see

makes the irrational rational

makes futures from dreams

and like water it fills our minds and bodies

and starts exhausted legs walking

brings dead hope back to life

turns the old young

and helps us walk on water
