I love how things sometimes come together. The last few days’ readings in Exodus have had water as a central part - the Red Sea, the pillar of cloud, and then today the bitter water made sweet (15:22-25), the water at Elim (15:27), and the water from the rock at Meribah (17:1-7). In each of the stories, water is a sign of God’s presence with them for protection and provision. Today has also been a very rainy day around here (with freezing rain, sleet, and snow in the next 24-36 hours). And finally, the theme of my most recent contemplative photography session from Tuesday night was water. In our group, we shared about what we experience with water - the group shared about peacefulness, renewal, reflection (literal and figurative), and restoration. It was a beautiful sharing last night of our photos from the last week and of our experiences.
