"The Water That I Shall Give Him..."

John 4:
Jesus offers much more than a  spiritual "drink of water" to the thirsty soul.  He offers to create a well in the soul that never goes dry, but springs up into eternal life.  When you come to Him, and drink from the water that He gives, you receive eternal life at that very moment--you "enter into life;" you "pass from death into life;" you receive a life that means you cannot die, in the spiritual sense.
How do you do this??
You simply ask.  That's what Jesus said, He said, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who speaks to you, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
When you ask, God will speak to you about your life, as Jesus did to the woman--"Go, call your husband, and come here."  This was her "issue." She had to know that He would look into her life, into her heart, and change her when He offered her the "living water." Nobody knows what it is with you, but the point is that the Living Water is going to change YOU, and transform your life.
The living water:
Is a "well" it doesn't need feeding from the outside, but draws from the Aquifer of God's love and grace.
Springs up into eternal lfe.
Calls us to change/transforms us.
Reveals our hearts to us.
Makes us aware of "something better" than the life we live now.
Yours for the asking!
