Water Cures

I’ve been reading online about the wonder of water www.watercure.com and of all its benefits if we only drank it more regularly. The author of this website [Dr. B.] claims that human beings are not sick but thirsty.

“I did not invent water. I only discovered its importance to health and wellbeing. As a doctor, I ask you to give water a try.” Understanding dehydration will empower you to become much healthier…” –Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.

Now, I don’t know if water cures everything that Dr. B. claims it does,  however,  I do drink plenty of water and feel more healthy when I do. I think it’s worthy to note Dr. B’s argument:

“Water is the basis of all life and that includes your body. Your muscles that move your body are 75% water; your blood that transport nutrients is 82% water; your lungs that provide your oxygen are 90% water; your brain that is the control center of your body is 76% water; even your bones are 25% water.”

Reading about this really got me thinking about how the word “water” is used in the scriptures and how significant it is.

Water is first mentioned in Genesis 1:2 [the 1st chapter of the bible], and last mentioned in Revelation 22:17 [the last chapter of the bible], and flows 722 times between those pages; a fascinating study if you have the time.

Interestingly enough to me, some words of Jesus seem to parallel spiritually with the wonder of water that Dr. B. claims benefits us physically.

“whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” –John 4:14

Perhaps water cures in more ways than we might originally imagine!

It seems wise to take both Dr. B’s and Jesus’ words seriously because dehydration both physically and spiritually is real.

But may you also know, so is the living water that can truly cure us!
