Water

When I think of San Marcos, one of the first things I think about is the river. Sewell/Rio Vista/5 mile, whatever the case, San Marcos and this area has a lot of water. Growing up in Waco I had Lake Waco, but it isn't even on par with what this area has.

I started thinking about Water in the bible.

The first mention of water in scripture is found in  the very first chapter of Genesis  and the last mention is found in Revelation 22 In between those two books water flows through the pages of scripture, about 722 times This should teach is that there is a great spiritual significance to it.

In Genesis 1:20, we read of the first mention of life, and this life comes from water, "...Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life...". This just blows my mind. Water is so simple, yet so amazing. John 3 verse 5 says, "Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."  

Water speaks to us of the word of God 

San Marcos is amazing for so many reasons, but the water is one of the best
