You may want to check the floorpan/carriage on the underside of the car. There is an issue with corrosion causing holes. If you check at: http://repairpal.com/Jeep-cherokee-1997/recalls_and_tsbs you will find the following.

Body, Interior & Misc.: STRUCTURE:BODY Service Bulletin Number: 2302602
NHTSA Number: 633948
Model Years Affected: 1997
Date of Bulletin: 09/2002

Bulletin Summary: SUBJECT REGARDING FLOOR PAN CORROSION. C

The same is noted for my 95 Cherokee. The floorpan on mine had a number of places where holes had to be repaired. The repair included: scraping off the extra rusted area, filling in with caulk, riveting a metal scrap over them, then caulking the edges and once dry covering with the weatherproof sealant.

You may be able to get repair advice or a kit from the dealer since this is a technical service bulletin - I did not bother doing that as the materials I used in the repair noted were readily available in the garage already.

If you are sure it is water and not coolant, then the A/C Condenser drain line is stopped up. You will find it near the firewall on the passenger side. Look for a tube under the Jeep. If it is coolant, which will taste sweet, your heater core is leaking and must be replaced.
