The River of God

In response to Carl's word on the river in Ezekiel 47, it may be worth remembering that the river starts off shallow, so you can "paddle" in it, but gradually gets deeper until you have to swim: you are literally "swept off your feet"

Let's pray that we would be so overwhelmed by God's love that we no longer paddle round the edges, but venture out so that the water reaches our knees, then our waist...until finally we are swimming in the river...of the love of God.
