Psalm 84:2, 6-7 My soul longs, indeed it faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God. As they go through the valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools. They go from strength to strength; the God of gods will be seen in Zion. 

Exodus 15:22-25  Then Moses ordered Israel to set out from the Red Sea, and they went into the wilderness of Shur. They went for three days in the wilderness and found no water. When they came to Marah, they could not drink the water of Marah because it was bitter. That is why it was called Marah. And the people complained against Moses, saying, ‘What shall we drink?’ He cried out to the Lord; and the Lord showed him a piece of wood; he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There the Lord made for them a statute and an ordinance and there he put them to the test.

1 Corinthians 2:2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
