Grace, Hope & Peace, Friend;

As he watched a vision of God's dealings with the scourge that Satan's influence had wreaked upon creation, Jesus - "He who sits on the throne" (Revelation 21:5) - said to John,

“It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give water to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water of life, without cost."
	Revelation 21:6

Jesus is, and always has been sovereign! And He created humanity for His own purposes.

By Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominions, or rulers, or authorities - all things have been created through Him and for Him.
	Colossians 1:16

Satan slithered in and persuaded humanity. Telling us we don't need God - that He was only holding us back (Genesis 3:1-7) - and we followed him.

But God loves humanity so much that Jesus came to draw us back to Himself (John 3:16 & 12:32)

Jesus offers to all who thirst, living water (John 4:10) Will we accept His offer daily?

Yehoshua, - Reshit y Ketz - Jesus, beginning and end - fill me with the rivers of living water. (John 7:38)

Eat, friends; Drink and drink deeply, lovers.
	Song of Solomon 5:1f-h

Be refreshed in Jesus,
