“The Living Water That Only He Can Give”
 
 
but the water
by Dona Hake
 
 
 
 
This world can try to pull and tug at our hearts. The devil tries to deceive us and tempt us that we would seek after worldly pleasure rather than the life of the living God.    If we do not keep our eyes on Jesus we can be lured into seeking our satisfaction in things other than Him. Let us also be ever so careful for If we are not careful we can get our eyes too much on our blessings. and forget the One that gave them in the first place. 
Only Jesus can satisfy the thirst of our souls. Jesus explained to the woman at the well the meaning of the true spring of water that only He gives.

John 4:13-14
Amplified Bible

“Jesus answered her, All who drink of this water will be thirsty again.
But whoever takes a drink of the water that I will give him shall never, no never, be thirsty any more. But the water that I will give him shall become a spring of water welling up (flowing, bubbling) [continually] within him unto (into, for) eternal life.”

 
When you feel life problems and this world draining you of your strength and peace, stop and drink of His water that will strengthen and refresh your soul. Know that it will continue to nourish your soul and it has no end. As this scripture translation says, His water “shall become a spring of water welling up (flowing, bubbling, continually…” This gives such a beautiful image of His living water within us. It truly is the life flow from which we can draw upon whenever we meet uncertainty and overwhelming problems. God is gracious and He ever lives to pour forth that living water onto us!
