We need water to survive physically.  Without it our bodies wither and die. As humans we not only thirst physically, we also thirst spiritually.  In Psalm 42 the psalmist cries out, “My soul thirsts for God, for the living God?”  His words articulate the basic human longing for something or someone that can truly satisfy the deepest longings of our hearts.  The truth is we were created by God to be in an intimate, thirst quenching relationship with God.  Jesus promises that he can fulfill this deep longing of our soul.  He longs to be for us the water of life.  This coming Sunday we will share this life giving water with all of those we invite to join us in worship.
