Come To the Living Water
On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood
and cried out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. (John
7:37)
- Water is vital to maintaining our well-being.
- Jesus’ invitation: “If anyone thirsts, let him
come to Me and drink”.
- His announcement was dramatic, in terms of the
timing.
- It was the last day of the great feast, the
annual festival commemorating the wandering of the Jews in the wilderness, which
climaxed with a ceremonial pouring of water down the temple steps to recall
God’s provision of water for the thirsty wanderers.
- It was at that point that Jesus rose and proclaimed
that He is the water we all desperately need.
- Living like we really need Jesus, talking to Him
and depending on His wisdom, is vital to our spiritual well-being.
- Let us stay connected to Jesus, for He alone can
satisfy our thirsty soul!
- Dear Lord, forgive us for thinking that we can
do life without the water of Your presence, advice, counsel, comfort, and
conviction. Thank You that You are indeed the living water that we so
desperately need.
- Let us come to Jesus for the refreshing power of His living water.
