Amanda Davis is back in town (We call her Favis now, to differentiate between her and Amanda Cole). The Lord brought her back to little Monmouth just in the nick of time. The town is ready for her song, and she is ready to sing it.
We sat on the lawn the first night she was back, and like old times, we got out the guitar and just started singing. We didn't sing a particular song, just one that came out of our hearts.
Drink in, drink it in deep,
Drink, drink, drink it in deep,
drink, drink, drink it in deep...
A couple days later we all ended up on the front porch again ,and this time more of the song came as we praised Jesus.
What a beautiful fountain you are.
What a beautiful fountain you are,
Drink, drink, drink it in deep,
We drink You in, God.
The song that will come out of this woman and released into the town we call home will be world-changing. She is ready to write the songs of heaven! She is prepared to allow the love of God to overwhelm her until beauty pours out her hands and throat and lips. She is armed with humility and gentleness and a beautiful strength. And we have waited so long for a time like this, for people who worship God in Spirit and in Truth.
And the Beautiful Fountain that is Jesus will pour out of her, and us, until we are no longer ourselves and completely drowned.
I can't wait.
