"Whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst." John 4:14 NKJV
The woman Jesus met at well had been married five times. She had tried multiple relationships in an attempt to fill the void within her. But it didn't work for her, and it won't work for you. Neither will climbing the corporate ladder, or acquiring more and more stuff, or achieving fame. Note what Jesus told this woman: "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again" (v. 13 NKJV). When you're in the desert without water, there comes a point at which you start seeing mirages and believing things that are not real. And when your soul continues to be parched and dry, you start reaching for things that are not real and cannot satisfy it. Jesus didn't bring up this woman's past to embarrass her. He referenced it for one reason only; to let her know that He could heal the wounds of her past and give her hope for a better future. And he did. Not only did He transform her, but she also became the first person to introduce the gospel to Samaria. Perhaps you think you're beyond hope and redemption. David wasn't, and he denied Jesus. Thomas wasn't, even though he still remembered as a doubter. Paul wasn't, and he killed Christians before he became one. Your unfulfilled desires and your unquenched thirst are a plus, not a minus, if you let them drive you to the feet of Jesus. Here is His promise: "The water that I shall give...will become...a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life" (v. 14 NKJV).
