John 4:13&14 Jesus
answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst
again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never
thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water
springing up into everlasting life. Jesus was traveling through Samaria on
the way to Jerusalem and had stopped at a well for a break at noon. His
disciples had gone into the city to buy some food while Jesus remained at the
well to rest. A woman came to fill her water pot and Jesus asked her for a
drink. The well was deep and Jesus did not have a rope or a water pot, so he
had no way to get a drink. The woman gave him a drink. After He was satisfied,
He met her spiritual need. The woman had been married and divorced five times
and was living with a man without being married. She came out at noon to avoid
the other women who came out early. She was embarrassed by their looks and
sharp questions. But Jesus cared about her soul. Jesus offered her Living Water. She did not understand
that Living Water was eternal life.
Jesus explained all of that to her. The woman was thrilled that the Master
cared for her, and she rushed back into the city to tell anyone who would
listen that Jesus had the words of eternal life. Jesus loves all of us. Have
you accepted His Living Water?
