Psalm 42:10 says he calls \u201cin the roar of the waterfall.\u201d The images of the psalms can translate to many situations, so they are always personal. To me, at this moment, the waterfall is all the thoughts in my mind that compete for attention. They roar and fall down around me on all sides.

Today, the waterfall is thoughts, tomorrow it might be an emotion that consumes me, but the message is the same. He calls through the roar of the waterfall. I just have to stop and listen.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.communityofjesus.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Fountain.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5627029 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.communityofjesus.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/Fountain-e1467728770844-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"Fountain\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow us<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/communityofjesus.org\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/communityofjesus.org<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/TheCommunityOfJesus\/~4\/TRVDiKfEpIU\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Sr. Spero Deep calls to deep \u201cin the roar of the waterfall.\u201d (Psalm 42:10).
