Wellspring

How much is required for you to have your needs met? How much is enough? What are your physical and spiritual needs?

We all have basic physical and spiritual needs which need to be met for our survival and wellbeing.

In the account of the Samaritan woman at the well in John’s gospel, Jesus addressed the woman’s spiritual need by offering her living water.

Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:13-14, ESV).

Our needs will never be satisfied by the provisions of this world. We have eternal longings and needs, which only God can satisfy. When God provides, we are eternally satisfied by him and in him. God’s provision is a wellspring of eternal life and satisfaction in him.

May we receive the satisfying wellspring of living water that Jesus gives us, and exclaim with the Samaritan woman who said to Jesus, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.” (John 4:15, ESV).

A Collect for Guidance: “Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
