This evening as I was doing housework, I put in my Casting Crowns CD, and went to town cleaning. The song titled, "The Well," came on, and wow, it spoke so loudly to my heart. I was reminded that I am to go to Him daily, and find my worth and joy in Jesus. We chase so many things in this life trying to fill our dry and thirsty souls only to end up parched. The reason why is because only God alone was meant to fill that void. Not our spouse, relationships, money, or material possessions...ONLY HIM. He longs to fill us with an unending love and overflowing joy. Will you meet Him at the well today, friends, and drink from The Living Water? He's waiting there for you with open arms.
Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but 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 4:13-14
I love it when a song speaks right to me. Only God can fully fill...so good. Love Casting Crowns, too!
