John 4:14. “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into into everlasting life.”
A WELL: the life of the cross. A hole was dug; to men it was dry - They weren't even looking for water. Some might have said when they passed by, “Another place would be a whole lot better.” But they weren't digging to fill a human need -
They were going to put into that hole a cross. From the cross in that hole to the world would speed - A message that would give hope to the lost.
Whether it is a woman at a well or men working in the street. From what seemed like a dry well, there came - A life-giving spring that was sufficient to meet Every charge against us that our sin could claim. When into that dry well, the cross of Christ was placed - A flow began that can never be stopped. Who would have ever thought that millions would be blessed; When first into that hole the cross was dropped.
Today there is flowing still a fountain full of blessing The Lord told a sinful woman that would come. Down through successive ages, people have learned the lessons Of John's Gospel, and found words that pierce right to the bone. Conviction of sin comes first when we come to that well - Repentance follows after when we face our guilt. Then from that well there comes the message that will tell - How from what seemed a dry well, cleansing blood was spilt.
“O Gracious Father, I thank Thee now for that greater fountain of eternal life that I can enjoy today and constantly. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
