One's own knowledge and understanding of truth are always evolving. This blog seems to have morphed mainly into a collection of scriptural thoughts and insights, mostly for the purpose of personal exploration. I believe that we can "know" spiritual truths. I also believe that the scriptures can be a gateway to that knowledge.

More About Rivers....



Rivers have boundaries.  Banks guide the direction of the flowing water.  Because of borders the water can be taken to multiple places and in doing so the river provides sustenance to living entities along the way.  When banks are removed or breached, the waters flood the surrounding areas and instead of giving life they cause destruction or stagnation.  The surrounding lands are swamped and useless.  Heavenly Father has given us a strait and narrow, a rod of iron, commandments – boundaries so that we can become life giving waters.  (Above photo is entitled "Resurrection River."  Nice.)

  1. Wish I could pour this particular thought into "someone's" head (maybe even 2 "someones" heads.) This is absolutely the truth. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.
