A Scripture and a Prayer: “The Water of Life”

“Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:14)

Prayer:

Lord, how often do we settle for that which does not satisfy? How often do we take shortcuts and miss out on Your promise of that well of living water and true spiritual fulfillment? Only You can fulfill what our souls long for and fill the emptiness that aches inside our hearts. Help us, O Lord, come to You and fill ourselves with Your water of eternal life. May our souls’ thirst for You and You alone, and may we drink deeply from your river of living water, the Holy Spirit. AMEN
