Great Theology and a Blog Update

Two things today for our readers.

————————

First, I wanted to share some great theology from a two-year-old. This morning, Turner was singing (what else is new) as I was reading my Bible. He likes to see what words he can fit into certain songs, whether they make sense or not. Sometimes, they make far more sense than he knows.

This morning, he was singing “Deep and Wide,” then he started to add in some lyrics. One of them made me stop and think. He sang:

Deep and wide, deep and wide

There’s a fountain flowing, and I want it.

It may not rhyme, and it may not be actual lyric, but isn’t that the way we should be? Should we not desire the fountain that flows from Calvary? Should it not be our desire to daily drink of that fountain the flows?

Do you really “want it”?
