Water, Water, Everywhere

It was just a coincidence, but today when I preached on baptism and God bringing us new life through the water, the church basement flooded. Terry Pratt, then Sean, Tim, Caleb and I bailed water for 21/2 hours. Tim went out and got a little shop-vac. The water is now coming in at no more than a gallon a minute, so we can keep up. But I'm sick of water. And I'm ready to claim that promise that the people of God will walk with dry feet.
