Did you know that the human body can go weeks without food, but can only survive days without water?
In ABF this week we discussed how Jesus Christ is our Living Water. The Lord provided life-sustaining water for the Israelites at the beginning and end of their wandering. He showed them that it is He who gives them life and he used Moses' faith to reveal Himself to the people. Jesus offered the Samaritan woman at the well a water that would "become a spring of water welling up to eternal life." The expression welling up is used as a vigorous expression, with a meaning like leaping up. Jesus was speaking of vigorous, abundant life.
Things of earth – money, power, pleasures, government, job, health, family, ministry – cannot refresh you forever. They all dry up eventually. Don’t look in these places for significance, satisfaction, or security. Only through Jesus Christ will our spiritual thirst be quenched once and for all.
Can you think of something in your life that is being temporarily satisfied?
