Have you thought about the fact that you could be spiritually dehydrated? The symptoms of spiritual dehydration manifest in our attitudes, anxieties, addictions, and assumptions. When our lives are marked by emptiness, negativity, toxicity, fears, and relationship drama, then we are in desperate need of Living Water. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Jesus offered an open invitation to us in John 7 to find life-giving, soul-filling, and thirst-quenching abundance in a relationship with Him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’” Now this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified." John 7:37-39⠀ Jesus said, “If you believe, you will receive!” It is in believing in Jesus (not just merely knowing facts about Him) that our souls are filled to the uttermost with Living Water. The substitutes we try to put in God’s spot to quench our soul thirst never truly satisfy. We may try to find life in relationships, followers, shopping, substances, and success, but none of these will ever really satisfy if we aren’t filled by Jesus, the Living Water.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Friend - seek after Jesus, the Living Water for your longings. For in Him, the well will never run dry. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
