Jesus, The Living Water
Jesus answered, “If you only knew what God gives and who it is that is asking you for a drink, you would ask him, and he would give you life-giving water. John 4:10
John 4 tells of the story of Jesus and the woman at the well. In verse 10, Jesus says to her, I am the life-giving water and then He says in verse 13 and 14 “13 Jesus answered, “Those who drink this water will get thirsty again, but those who drink the water that I will give them will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give them will become in them a spring which will provide them with life-giving water and give them eternal life.” Jesus looks at you and me today and offers us life changing living water. From this water our inner most thirst is quenched and life is fulfilled.
Take time today to receive what God so freely gives. Find rest and purpose in intimacy with your Creator. I have come to understand this: the more you drink of the living water, the more you want of Him and the more fulfilled you feel. You see, if we fill our days with busyness and those days turn into weeks, the spirit man becomes thirsty. We were created with an insatiable thirst for relationship with God. So today will you drink of this living water? If you are in need, do not be afraid to ask for a refill. Jesus said in Matthew 5:6, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled.”
