We all hit some dry times in our lives.  Times when we are feeling drained and exhausted.  What we need is a time of refreshing.  
Today we learn a lesson from an old sailing ship far out to see off the coast of Brazil.  They desperately needed fresh water and found it in a very unexpected way.  It is a lesson that we all can learn from.

In the book of First Samuel, we read about a battle between Israel and the Philistines where Israel loses.  But this battle was not only about these two warring nations. There was a greater battle to be fought and just when one side thought they had won, they began to realize how badly they had lost.  Listen today to find out how this all ended.
