The Fountain of Life

​​Responsorial Psalm 36 today has the refrain "With you is the fountain of life, O Lord."  The image of a fountain, like an overflowing glass of cool water on a hot and humid day, always comforts me and helps me to understand the concept of God's unconditional love.  God's love never stops flowing into my life.  God never shouts "Enough!" or shuts the replenishing water of love and grace off.  I have only to go through my personal life history, with all of the ups and downs, to see that God's love has always been there, even in the rough times.

​God's love is ALWAYS THERE.  God will never leave us orphans or walk away from us.  God will be with us even when we go through the fire or storm.  How can I not connect this with my deep belief in the Risen One who said to us "I am with you always until the end of time"? 

​There are many people in need of remembering this, Lord.  There are so many who forget that the glass of cool water, your love and faithfulness is very near.  I pray for them now and for all who need help with reaching out for the presence and consolation you always offer. 
​Jesus, my Resurrection and Life, grant that we may rise with you!  Rise from our sins and failings, our mistakes and hardships, our discouragement and fears.   Come Lord Jesus, quench our thirst!
