Here's what the floor does that nobody tells you.
It makes you honest about the thirst.
Because as long as there's a performance to keep up and substitutes to fill the space and other rivers to try — you can avoid the honesty.
But the floor strips all of it away.
And suddenly the thirst is undeniable.
Sam Wesley names it directly: walking through the desert... tired and thirsty, my soul's run dry... tried other rivers to satisfy, lost who I was and I tried to hide.
That's the person from Position 1 — still on the floor, but now honest about what they actually need.
And then —
Your voice like thunder, Your grace like rain. My heart wide open — come and sweep me away.
This is the moment the encounter breaks through the desert. Not after you clean it up. Not when you've performed your way back. Right now. Desert-floor broken. Heart wide open. Asking.
And He shows up.
The thirst gets answered with thunder.
That's Position 2. That's the moment the journey changes.
