Drooping Leaves

I have a peace lily plant in my office, and one thing I learned about peace lilies is that their leaves start to droop when they need water. After I water the plant, the leaves perk up and point upward again.

I can feel a lot like these drooping leaves sometimes. But when I am drooping, I come to realize that I have not come to drink of the soothing waters of the Word of God lately and I have not let the waters of Christian companionship pour over me for a while.

It takes about a week for the leaves of the peace lily to start drooping again after being watered, so it is only natural that church on Sundays comes once a week to renew and replenish ours souls with Good News and good friends in Christ.

Don’t let your life start drooping for too long. Let your life keep looking upward to heaven, where Christ is seated and where river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flows from the throne of God and of the Lamb (Revelation 22:1).
