John Wesley was preaching one day, when the town bully started to tease him. The bully shouted, "We've had Christianity for 1,700 years and what difference has it made? What's it ever done? We're in just as big of a mess now as we've ever been in."
Wesley replied, "My good man, don't you know that we have had water for much longer than that, but you've still got a dirty face. You've got to use something before it works." Water is an ancient symbol for what we need.
