God’s a gonna’ trouble the water…
Wading in the water is not always a positive experience or a guarantee of an easy life, is it? Avoiding slave catchers comes to mind in particular. Even the less negative examples like Jordan River and baptismal waters still have associated challenges (HERE is a little Wikipedia history if you’re interested in more.)
Worry can come along for the ride. Yet such wading can also produce important perspective and wisdom.
ACTION: Consider listening to traditional versions of Wade in the Water or those with Wade in the Water influences for important perspective
- Sistah Lala’s “Troubled Waters” version is HERE – a really nice combination of traditional and faith-filled message in this one
- Chapel Folk’s “Wade in the Water – a Stoned version” is HERE
- A few more traditional versions HERE
Ready to “wade in the water” today? [at least figuratively, if not literally? ]
May we be willing to wade in the water regularly while staying Christ-centered, strengthened and spurred by the Spirit!
