Water of Life - Day One Morning Devotion

This weekend, my mother, sister, sister-in-law and I are going on our ninth annual Girls' Weekend. Each year we carve out time in our busy schedules to vacation together -- no kids, no husbands, no pets, no distractions. We always have a wonderful time and often have a theme to center the weekend around. This year our focus is "Water of Life" and we'll be doing morning and evening devotions together. I thought you might like to virtually join us. I'll post the briefest outlines for our devotions -- I'll look forward to reading your answers to the discussion questions!
