The coolness and refreshing that comes from a river of water <\/a>is beyond comprehension; there is nothing like it.\u00a0 Man’s thirst has been ever going and never quenching. We have been thirsting for something new for the longest.\u00a0A thirst that never quenches as been upon us\u00a0ever since Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden fruit. Eating of the forbidden fruit caused a thirst on man that has lasted until the time of Christ. \u00a0The people of Israel wondered through the wilderness for forty years and they\u00a0complained unto Moses for water,\u00a0and\u00a0Moses out of anger hit the rock instead of touching it which gushed out water.\u00a0After they drank they thirst again.<\/p>\n

John 4:10<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living<\/b> water<\/b>.<\/div>\n

<\/strong>The greatest experience anyone can have here in earth is the experience with God. It is spontaneous, powerful and life changing. It is for everyone and anyone, but only those who really want it will obtain it.\u00a0 In this scenario of the Samaritan women her descendent left her and her people a well of to draw out water from. The water they drank from the well once finished left them thirsty again, but the water Jesus was offering her had lasting effects. In another chapter of John Jesus said that this water would gosh out of the belly (Jh. 7:38), it refers to the active force of the everlasting thirst quencher of God. These living waters do not quench the thirst of the paletel of the mouth, it quenches the spirit. Jesus is the way to the thirst quencher (Re.7:17), he leads us to the waters that satisfy our soul. Zachariah says that these living waters two areas that are symbolic in our lives; the old sea (Za. 14:8) and the new, our past and present and future tense.<\/p>\n

The satisfaction of our souls which is in Christ can stop when we decide to leave God (Jer. 17:13), but God’s calling continues to remain active even when we decide to leave him. We have finally come across the well of living waters via the invitation of Christ (SoS 4:15-16), but we need to adhere to his call.<\/p>\n
