When we go out among hills and streams we will find here and there a spring clear cold water bubbling up from the ground, or from between the rocks.
We all get thirsty, and when out walking on a warm day, we are pleased to run across one of these refreshing springs.
But it is our bodies that thirst for this kind of water. When we learn what poor, sinful creatures we are, and there is nothing in this world to satisfy us, we find our souls growing thirsty for something that will satisfy.
Dear reader, God tells us how we can satisfy this thirst. Jesus says,
The invitation is free. It cost the Lord Jesus all the sufferings and agony of the cross, but it costs you nothing.
