Advent word of the day: Water
Water vital to live
We drink it to stay alive
We bathe in it to clean ourselves
We are bathed in it to cleanse ourselves
John baptized by emersion, as do we
We also baptize with water
For purification
Jesus changed water to wine
Then offered his wine as life-giving blood
Life-giving in the world of God
God’s water is pure
God made us in His image
Our bodies are mostly water
The pure water created by God
Celebrate our purity in God’s baptism water
