Drinking Day and Night

Daily writing prompt
Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle?

I love to drink day and night from this fountain. Give it a try.

From a mountain
And through a cloud
God’s message can
Be very loud.
When God’s cloud came
On Mount Sinai
What Moses heard
Was a clear word
To guide the world–
The Ten Commandments.
Even today
They still will speak
And guide those who
Follow God’s way.

Enclosed in a cloud
Atop a mountain
I felt God’s fountain
Flowing within me.
The fountain of life
Washes away strife
And floods me with peace
That will never cease.
Mountain or valley
It flows every day
As Christ’s living way.
Greater glory than
Even Moses saw,
It transcends the law
By changing the heart.
God wants it to start
And never to stop
Flowing in your heart.
Quench not the Spirit.
(2 Corinthians 3: 7-18)

Be not drunk with wine but be filled with the Spirit. Perhaps Christians have overcomplicated things. What if church isn’t programmed religious meetings but simply Christians humbly connecting heart-to heart with Christ’s inner fountain and with one another?

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
