Drinking from the well of Living Water

Attention HT members!

If you enjoyed the recent sermon series on Working from a Place of Rest, based on Jesus' conversation with the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well,then here is an opportunity to take up Jesus' invitation of living water:
“If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”


In the second of the sermons we looked at how Jesus gives spiritual refreshment and life to those who come to 'drink from the well' of his word, and sit in his presence each day. I spoke from personal experience of 'the real me' meeting 'the real God' day by day, and the important place of daily Bible reading for that to be possible.


Today I used the Word Live daily Bible reading notes, which I have used for a number of years now. The contributor this week is Dr Paul Woodbridge, who taught me and Aneal (and probably Gary Jenkins!) New Testament at Oak Hill College - so I can vouch for it being a great week to join Word Live if you don't already have good daily Bible reading notes. The quality of Paul's commentary and application is always excellent.

You can sign up for Word Live notes to come into your email inbox daily, for free. It also has a podcast option so that you can listen rather than read, if that suits you better. Go on - drink up!
