WATER OF LIFE

The truest measure of our relationship with Jesus will always be in the life found in the lives of those we touch.
Jesus tells the Samaritan woman in John 4 he is the source of living water, and those who come to Him will find life, and hope and refreshment for their souls.
He describes that water as a "fresh, bubbling spring within Him", one that brings eternal life.
If such a living water truly flows through us, then, the natural outflow will be life and beauty blooming around us. There will be growth and fruit of hope showing in the hearts of those around us in Jesus is truly what flows from us.
Jesus words and his works were never to bring darkness, bitterness or despair. So, if this is what we see flowing from us into the lives of others, then the first thing we need to check is our own connection to the Source of Living Water.
When we find refreshment in Him, we seek to refresh others as well, instead of parching them of life.
So, what is your connection to the well of living water like? If you want to know, just look at the lives of those around you. The fruit should be easy to see.
