“...but whoever drinks the water I give them
will never thirst again.”
John 4:13
“In the Old Testament, many verses speak of thirsting after God as one thirsts for water (Psalm 42:1; Isaiah 55:1; Jeremiah 2:13; Zechariah 13:1). God is called the fountain of life (Psalm 36:9) and the spring of living water (Jeremiah 17:13). In saying he would bring living water that could forever quench a person’s thirst for God. Only the Messiah could give this gift that satisfies the soul’s desire.”
The living Word, Jesus Christ, and the written Word, the Bible, can satisfy our hungry and thirsty souls.”
