Rivers of Orange Juice

As I was perusing my journal, I came across something that I thought I could share. I'm not sure where it came from - whether I heard it from someone else or the Lord, but anyway...

A word from the Lord is like an orange:
You squeeze all the juice out until it seems there could never be any more.
In a moment of faith or curiosity, you return to the squeezed rind just to see if, hope against hope, there might be a drop left - just a drop.
Then, from the dry, shrivelled peel an outflow of juice overwhelms you!
20 to 30 times what was originally squeezed!
Such is the harvest of him who seeks beyond his understanding!
