Proverbs 5:15 says "Drink waters from your own cistern and fresh water from your own well." This speaks first to husbands; be blessed and rejoice in your wife, filled up with her love. And in the larger sense, be satisfied with the blessings God's given you. Rejoice, give thanks, receive and be filled with them. But there's something even more. The Hebrew word for "fresh" water here is "nazal" which can also mean "melting" water. In other words, your well, your marriage, your relationship might be frozen. There are potential waters of blessing and love, but it's iced up and cold. You might have to take time to warm it up with God's love. And keep loving until it melts the ice of your spouse's heart or whatever is needed. In other areas of your life, may be frozen because you're not giving thanks or haven't been paying attention to it. Warm up your frozen prayer life, your frozen ministry life, your frozen time in the Lord, your family time and it will flow. Drink waters from your own cistern, they may be frozen, so warm them up.
