The story is told of a coffee shop that once advertised this special offer: “Buy one of our coffee mugs for $4.49 and fill up your cup for a dime each time you visit.” However, the owners never expected that 25 years later, four longtime customers would still be getting their cup of java every day for 10 cents!<\/p>\n
Today, we won’t find many offers like the above offer, but Jesus offered something far greater to the woman at the well in John 4:10). He told her:<\/p>\n
\n“Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but …. the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life” (John 4:13-14 – NKJV).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
This woman was eager to listen because none of her many personal relationships had ever filled up her emptiness (John 4:16-18). Then Jesus offered her “water” that would soothe her impoverished life and give her something far better than temporary refreshment the promise of eternal life.<\/p>\n
That same promise is ours as well (1 John 2:23-25). God’s grace and other spiritual benefits come from a bottomless reservoir (John 7:38-39; 2 Peter 1:1-4; cf. 2 Corinthians 6:16-18; 2 Corinthians 7:1). Let’s drink from the water He offers, and we’ll never thirst again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
