One of my favourite passages of Scripture is in John chapter 4, where Jesus has a beautiful life-changing conversation with a Samaritan Woman at a well. He offers her Living Water to fill her soul and quench her spiritual thirst.
Jesus said, “Those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.” (John 4:13).
I love the imagery of the fresh bubbling spring, where God is the fountain of living water that continually flows in and through all who believe. Which means our souls can find the nourishment they need to live an abundant life in Christ, full of His Spirit.
I’m declaring the need and desire for His living water in my life today. To be filled up again, to overflowing, and cling to the promise that by His grace, it will never run dry.
