More lack of water experiences:
When I first moved to the property on my own, it was evident that the climate was changing. For one thing the rainfall became less and less. Then over the next 25 years or so, a seemingly endless drought cast a shadow of despair over our home state.
As a child I often marveled at the story of Moses finding water in a rock, and wondered how he could have done that. Particularly, how he knew which spot to go to. Then, for the first time, it occurred to me that Moses didn't miraculously create the water. It had been there all the time. Moses had to be led, through humility and prayer, to the right placeto just the right solution. According to Exodus, God said, "I will stand there before you .... Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink" (Ex. 17:6, New International Version).

And this one is even more like the Moses story:
[url]"ABUNDANT SUPPLY EVER PRESENT"[/url] (or, There is no lack in the infinitude of God's ever-present abundance)
This thought-provoking article discusses starts off discussing Jesus multiplication of the loaves and fishes, which you can read here: [url]John 6:1-14[/url]
John records in his Gospel that when a vast multitude had followed Jesus, he asked Philip, one of the disciples, how the great company could be fed. Philip contended that even two hundred pennyworth of bread would be insufficient. Andrew pointed out that there was present a lad who had two small fishes and five barley loaves with him, but dismissed this amount as being completely inadequate
The true idea of infinite substance was not in the number of loaves, but in the all-sufficiency of the idea which the loaves and fishes represented. This idea is inexhaustible
Jesus exchanged a limited object of sense for an infinite idea, and by so doing abundance was manifested in the human experience
And then it goes on to illustrate this principle:
A Christian Scientist was one of a party of three on a geological field trip in the southwestern part of the United States. They were working in a remote desert area and carried only enough water to last a few days because they expected to locate water in the region. However, after two days of fruitless searching for it, they agreed that they had no choice but to return to civilization the following morning
He too thought about how Moses had struck the rock when the Israelites were without water and it had gushed out and reasoned that any law of God which was in effect at the time of Moses must still be in effect now and through that law of Love, every human need is met.
The following morning before the party was to break camp, the Scientist decided to look once more for water. He wandered into a canyon near the camp. His eye fell on a patch of green moss, about the size of his fingertip, growing in a crevice of a rock. Finding the moss damp, he struck the crevice with his handpick, and in a few moments, there was more good water flowing from the rock than they could possibly use, and it continued to flow the entire time they needed it.
