water

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.”

- John 4:10

 

Living water.

When I think of “living water” I think of a cool, crisp clear mountain stream, the kind where you can see the bottom as it rushes along, I don’t think of a stagnant, smelly, mossy pond that is never clear. 

Think about those two bodies of water and ask yourself, which water you would prefer to drink to quench your thirst?

Song reference!!

Here in this worn and weary land

Where many a dream has died

Like a tree planted by the water

We never will run dry

So living water flowing through

God, we thirst for more of You

Fill our hearts and flood our souls with one desire

Just to know You and to make You known

We lift Your name on high

Shine like the sun, make darkness run and hide

We know we were made for so much more than ordinary lives

It's time for us to more than just survive

We were made to thrive

Into Your Word, we're digging deep

To know our Father's heart

Into the world, we're reaching out

To show them who You are

So living water flowing through

God, we thirst for more of You

Fill our hearts and flood our souls with one desire

Just to know You and to make You known

We lift Your name on high

Shine like the sun, make darkness run and hide

We know we were made for so much more than ordinary lives

It's time for us to more than just survive

We were made to thrive

Joy unspeakable, faith unsinkable

Love unstoppable, anything is possible

Joy unspeakable, faith unsinkable

Love unstoppable, anything is possible

Joy unspeakable, faith unsinkable

Love unstoppable, anything is possible

Joy unspeakable, faith unsinkable

Love unstoppable, anything is possible

Just to know You and to make You known

We lift Your name on high

Shine like the sun, make darkness run and hide

We know we were made for so much more than ordinary lives

It's time for us to more than just survive

We were made to thrive, hey

We were made to thrive

Where are you in your faith, are you living water or a stagnant pond? 
Living water. 

That is what Jesus is to our souls, a cool, crisp clear mountain stream, filling us and resolving our thirst.

And if we are to be like Jesus, we cannot be stagnant.
