Living water

We need water to survive. With increasing drought in parts of the world, water has become a precious commodity. We must use water carefully. Jesus offers the woman at the well living water. Jesus offers us this same living water that quenches our thirst and becomes an internal spring that wells up to eternal life. How do we get this water? Jesus has the way: We must soften our hearts, listen to his voice and truly believe the Good News of Jesus Christ. It is by faith and through Jesus that we have this living water. The love of God has been poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
