The Middle Seat on a Long Flight

I want to draw your attention to something about jesus that will frustrate you, and frustrate me does right now. That is that oftentimes, god does not participate in our pools. He doesn't participate in the race. He just overrode it. And iam, the healing, the dream, the fulfilment, the satisfaction, the freedom, the forgiveness you crave, i am. So he says, get on. As if the man hadn't thought of that before, get up. It's thi emphatic statement made by jesus: while you are busy grappling and groping for a pathetic pool, what craving is me, the living water.
