By Kim Cimuchowski
Heating a balloon with a candle pops an empty balloon, just as one sin hurts our connection to God. We are not good enough on our own, we need a Savior…but a balloon filled with water will not pop, even when put directly into a candle flame. The protection conferred from the ‘living water’ is similar to the protection from salvation (which takes place at baptism); both priceless yet free, both available to everyone, and both necessary for life, physical and eternal.
