A Drink Of Living Water

Good Monday Morning Blog Family. Praying everyone had a great weekend and ready start a new week with God. Hallelujah!

I have three green plants sitting in front of my glass door in the living room. One day I was walking by them and I noticed they were a little droopy and needing to be watered. So, I proceeded to water them and within a few hours, I noticed they were standing tall and flourishing was again. When they are watered and cared for, they are so green and beautiful.

As I was caring for my plants, I thought about our lives as Christians. How when we are weak and drooping, that is when we need to take a drink of the Living Water that comes from Jesus. Once we have taken that drink, like my plants. We began standing tall and flourishing once again in Jesus.

John 4:6-14 reads, ⁶ Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about noon.⁷ When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” ⁸ (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)⁹ The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.^[a])¹⁰ Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”¹¹ “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? ¹² Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”¹³ Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, ¹⁴ but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

So, have you had your drink of Living Water today? If not, it’s probably time for a drink. God Bless 🙂
