How is your “reservoir”? If you caught yourself with 16 ounces of contamination even among 8 million gallons of water, would it cause you to take the actions of repentance before God and the pursuit of righteousness?

The truth is, God cares deeply about your purity, your commitment to living life free from sin and your ability by God’s grace through the power of the Holy Spirit to do so.

In a number of places, God calls us the “temple of the Holy Spirit”, that anyone who believes in Jesus Christ and puts their faith in Him receives the Holy Spirit to dwell in them. The drainage will cost the state approximately $35,000 in tax-payer dollars, according to CNN.Īnd I think this incident parallels God’s thoughts toward His church in a very profound way. And the bureau thought that 16 ounces of urine (the most amount of urine a human bladder can contain) was enough to contaminate the reservoir and to start over from scratch.
The reservoir was used for drinking water and other human uses in and around the greater Portland area. The bureau is coming under heavy fire for the decision, with critics citing it as a gross over-reaction. The Portland Water Bureau responded with the decision to completely drain the reservoir. An article on tells the story of a surveillance camera catching a homeless man urinating in an 8 million gallon Oregon reservoir.
