Sunday Reflection: The Floods
Houston is under water again-- another storm, more floods.
Water is a tricky thing. Too little can be fatal, and so can too much. The Bible is full of water stories: the flood, of course, and baptism, and Jesus walking on it, and all of the fishing-- quite a bit of water for stories set in the desert.
I suppose that there is a subtle message in all of this: the things that sustain you can kill you, too. It's an unsettling message, isn't it?
