OH 4:14{Did you ever think why it is so utterly hopeless and useless to try to quench that inner thirst with anything but the living water, "the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ"? He has said plainly and positively that you shall not succeed! He hath said "Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again." You see there is no chance for you, for His Word cannot be broken, and He says you shall thirst again. There are only two issues of that perpetual thirst. One is the unanswered entreaty for a drop of water, only so much as a tip of the finger may bear, not to quench the unquenchable thirst, but only to cool a flame-tormented tongue. The only other, is "Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst." And lest our slow perceptions should fail to grasp the fact in the figure, the Lord Jesus repeats the promise, and says, "He that believeth on Me shall never thirst," "Never"! for "He satisfieth the longing soul.”
To whom, O Savior, shall we go
For life, and Joy, and light?
No help, no comfort from below,
No lasting gladness we may know,
No hope may bless our sight.
Our souls are weary and athirst,
But earth is iron-bound and cursed,
And nothing she may yield can stay
The restless yearnings day by day:
Yet, without Thee, Redeemer blest,
We would not, if we could, find rest.
