A Fountain with No Water

This fountain was controlled by a small church in Bethlehem and was not running but sits dry. It was turned off because of the churches fear that people wouldn’t come into the church and give offerings. If they allowed people to see the water outside, they might not come inside. When we forget that Jesus said fountains will flow FROM HIS PEOPLE – we miss the power of being the church. We don’t just come to church to worship, we come worshipping. Living water doesn’t stop… rivers flow, but the source is key… if it’s not Jesus we are coming to – stagnant water will result, dried up sources will be the result. To keep the water flowing – the source must remain.
