COME AND DRINK
Text: John 7:37-38
By: Adeaga O. Favour
If you have not been thirsty, you will not appreciate what it means to have a cup of water. When all hope had been lost and everyone, probably, was on his way home, the Scripture records that Jesus stood and cried that if anyone was thirsty, they should come and drink.
Our thirst may be different but the water that will quench each thirst flows from the same source. Your own thirst may be another child, a new job, a raise in your place of work, another source of income, a write-off or payment of your debt, a car of your own and on the list goes. But no matter what it is, there is water for you.
A man who has bucket of water can't meet as much needs as one who has a well not to now talk of the one who is the fountain of water. The water men gives guarantees a come back but the water that will forever quench your thirst can only be found in Jesus (Jn 4:13-14), this is why he needs you to come and drink today.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
Only Jesus has the water that quenches all thirsts.
PRAY:
Lord Jesus, please give me the water of life so that I thirst no more.
