Thirsty People Worship Deeply (2 of 5)
Series: Deep Waters
Pastor Frank Damazio
Intro: Deep waters we wade into are ankle-high, knee-high and waist-high until we swim in the deep waters. We have pushed out from the shorelines, past our comfort zones and into the deep waters of God's presence. Worship is moving from the dry land to the land of rivers, wells, brooks and streams. The thirsty soul is the one that pushes out into deeper waters. There is a call of the Spirit that is tugging on our hearts, inviting us to go deeper. Respond with a deep thirst that moves you toward the deep waters.
