I am so grateful to join with my dear friend, Anna, this week as we begin Part 2, The Living Water, from our book. I would love to invite you to read my poem and thoughts that God brought fresh to us both again:

Welcome to Part 2 of Arise and Shine: The Living Water of God. Today, Bettie is opening part 2 with a devotional, including a poem and prayer. She shares a personal testimony on the gift of God’s living water that washes us in the truth and grace of our God.

Oh, how often we see our wounds as shameful. I know I do that myself, in big and small ways. May I learn to lay down my pride every single day. You always encourage me to live closer to Jesus, Bettie. Thank you, friend. I benefited by your devotional.

Yes, I join you in that prayer to lay down my pride every day. I fall back so quickly! But He is so gracious to lift us closer again. Thank you for all of your prayers and encouragement Dear Lisa. Blessings and love to you.
