If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him. John 7:37, 38 NIV
There was a time in my life when I know I became thirsty. If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. It was after I had grown up into a young man, finished my time in the Marine Corp and had come back from Viet Nam. The thought came to me – “what is life for, what is its goal?” I had no problem believing in God because it says – “In God We Trust” on our money. So I asked this God on our money to please do something with my life and he began to do something in me that would change and renew me forever. If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. By his grace he renewed my faith to trust again in Jesus the Christ and I have never been the same. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from with him. This living water flowed, which I discovered was the Holy Spirit producing a new character within me, which looked like love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and of all things self-control. Today enjoy being thirsty for our Lord and his grace. The life that is eternal will be yours even through your opportunities. As the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow naturally from within and through you. This will give you a life that will bless you and bring inspiration to those around you. Enjoy! |
