Where Peaceful Waters Flow Words of Encouragement Devotional is filled with God's loving words to His children. The devotional is written as if the Lord is ministering to you Himself with refreshing words of comfort to feed your weary and wounded soul. These encouraging words will minister, restore and revive you. Use this devotional during your quiet with the Lord as you sit with Him each day. Read it during that special time with the Lord, when you shut out everything and everybody to dwell in His presence. As you allow the Lord to come into your quiet conversation every day, your relationship with Him will grow stronger and stronger. You can also use this devotional as you are meditating and giving the Lord your “first fruits” of the day; you will find yourself handling things easier because you have spent time with Him first. You see, with our Lord, it is not about how much money you give, it is about honoring Him with your very best, and keeping Him first. Honoring the Lord with your best will enrich your life in a way in which you have never known. The words of encouragement included this book were ministered to me throughout the 10 years of my writing ministry. It took a lot of praying to find out how the Lord wanted me to put this book together, and which messages to include in the book, because there were so many wonderful messages He had given me over the years. Therefore, Where Peaceful Waters Flow” is divided into two parts. The first part of the devotional book is entitled, “BE STILL," and it's filled with words of encouragement for your time when you are meditating and prayerfully sitting at His Feet.The second part of the devotional book is entitled, “ARISE Praying with The Father In the Midnight Hour” and it is filled with responses received from the Holy Spirit during prayer and intercession times in the midnight hour.If you want to experience the Lord, like never before; then come and allow these words of encouragement to usher you into His presence. Come and sit at His feet; be still and know that He is God. It is time for us to get back to an intimate relationship with Jesus. Get ready to dwell in the presence of the Lord and be refreshed, renewed and strengthen, as the Lord pours His refreshing oil over you to revive your weary soul. Come inside to Where Peaceful Waters Flow.

“Wonderfully written…Mr. Owen writes about water, but in these polarized times the lessons he shares spill into other arenas. The world of water rights and wrongs along the Colorado River offers hope for other problems.” —Wall Street Journal An eye-opening account of where our water comes from and where it all goes. The Colorado River is an essential resource for a surprisingly large part of the United States, and every gallon that flows down it is owned or claimed by someone. David Owen traces all that water from the Colorado’s headwaters to its parched terminus, once a verdant wetland but now a million-acre desert. He takes readers on an adventure downriver, along a labyrinth of waterways, reservoirs, power plants, farms, fracking sites, ghost towns, and RV parks, to the spot near the U.S.–Mexico border where the river runs dry. Water problems in the western United States can seem tantalizingly easy to solve: just turn off the fountains at the Bellagio, stop selling hay to China, ban golf, cut down the almond trees, and kill all the lawyers. But a closer look reveals a vast man-made ecosystem that is far more complex and more interesting than the headlines let on. The story Owen tells in Where the Water Goes is crucial to our future: how a patchwork of engineering marvels, byzantine legal agreements, aging infrastructure, and neighborly cooperation enables life to flourish in the desert—and the disastrous consequences we face when any part of this tenuous system fails.

In the continental United States, rivers serve to connect state to state, interior with exterior, the past to the present, but they also divide places and peoples from one another. These connections and divisions have given rise to a diverse body of literature that explores American nature, ranging from travel accounts of seventeenth-century Puritan colonists to magazine articles by twenty-first-century enthusiasts of extreme sports. Using pivotal American writings to determine both what literature can tell us about rivers and, conversely, how rivers help us think about the nature of literature, The Meaning of Rivers introduces readers to the rich world of flowing water and some of the different ways in which American writers have used rivers to understand the world through which these waters flow. Embracing a hybrid, essayistic form—part literary theory, part cultural history, and part fieldwork—The Meaning of Rivers connects the humanities to other disciplines and scholarly work to the land. Whether developing a theory of palindromes or reading works of American literature as varied as Henry David Thoreau's A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers and James Dickey’s Deliverance, McMillin urges readers toward a transcendental retracing of their own interpretive encounters. The nature of texts and the nature of “nature” require diverse and versatile interpretation; interpretation requires not only depth and concentration but also imaginative thinking, broad-mindedness, and engaged connection-making. By taking us upstream as well as down, McMillin draws attention to the potential of rivers for improving our sense of place and time.

Winner of the Norma Fleck Award for Canadian Children’s Non-Fiction From the mid-1800s to the late 1990s, the education of Indigenous children was taken on by various churches in government-sponsored residential schools. More than 150,000 children were forcibly taken from their families in order to erase their traditional languages and cultures. As Long as the Rivers Flow is the story of Larry Loyie’s last traditional summer before entering residential school. It is a time of adventure and learning from his Elders. He cares for an abandoned baby owl, watches his kokom (grandmother) make winter moccasins, and helps his family prepare for summer camp, where he will pick berries, fish and swim. While searching for medicine plants in the bush with Kokom, he encounters a giant grizzly bear. Gently but truthfully written, the book captivates its readers and reveals a hidden history.
