John 4:10
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.”
If you read the full chapter of John 4, you would understand
that the Samaritan woman that Jesus was speaking to was truly confused to have
him as her for a drink of water as the Jewish men would never talk to her, let
alone ask her to give them water. The
Jews and Samaritans simply did not associate with one another.
Jesus flips it and tells her that if she knew who he was,
she would have been asking him for water.
The woman still confused replied that he had nothing to draw water
with.
Of course Jesus is not talking about the water from the well
rather the living water of Christ.
We are promised that if we drink the living water, that we
will never thirst again. Some would
question this, why wouldn't we thirst for more of the living water, or
Christ. Simply because when you drink of
the living water, it will become a spring of water welling up to inside you to
eternal life. We will have an endless
fountain for ourselves therefore we will never thirst.
Do you have that spring of water welling up inside you? If not, I invite you to drink of the living
water.
