Reflection
“Jesus said to her, ‘Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water I will give them will never be thirsty. The water that I will give will become for them, a spring of water gushing up to eternal life.’
“The woman said to him, ‘Give me this water, that I may never be thirsty, or have to keep coming here to draw water’.”
– John 4:13,15
Respond
I thank you God, for draughts of cool and refreshing water. I thank you for the gift of Christ, the Living Water, satisfying my thirst for spiritual refreshment and forgiveness. Amen.
Action
There is no time like the present to come to the well.
