“I daren’t come and drink,” said Jill.

“Then you will die of thirst,” said the Lion.

“Oh, dear!” said Jill, coming another step nearer. “I suppose I must go and look for another stream then.”

“There is no other stream,” said the Lion.

from The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis, as quoted in A Year with Aslan

 

Deuteronomy 30:19b-20 NIV

Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Zephaniah 3:17 NIV

The Lord your God is with you,

    the Mighty Warrior who saves.

He will take great delight in you;

    in his love he will no longer rebuke you,

    but will rejoice over you with singing.”

Psalm 62:8 NIV

Trust in him at all times, you people;

    pour out your hearts to him,

    for God is our refuge.
