I was really thirsty. I wanted an icy, refreshing fountain drink. Yet I poured another one down the drain and finally said, “No more.” A Major fast food restaurant — famous for its fountain drinks — has disappointed me for months. I kept hoping it was just a mix issue or faulty equipment that would eventually be fixed. After this latest attempt, I’m afraid it may be permanent. It’s so bad I don’t think I’ll even crave it again.
But I do know what truly refreshes me.
Over the past few months, time in God’s Word has refreshed and healed my soul. Seeking the Lord and the fellowship of other believers brings spiritual hydration to my parched heart.
In the Gospel of John 4:13–14, Jesus tells the woman at the well that He is the Living Water. Whoever drinks from Him will never thirst in the same way again. I am grateful that whenever my cup runs low, I can return to Him and be filled. His water does not run dry.
“Jesus answered and said to her, Every one who drinks of this water shall thirst again; but whosoever drinks of the water which I shall give him shall never thirst for ever… it shall become in him a fountain of water, springing up into eternal life.” — John 4:13–14 (Darby Translation)
The Living Water is an artesian spring — always flowing, always enough.

You just have to be willing to believe and accept His truth. In addition, here is an excellent page that can give you additional information on peace with God: PeaceWithGod.net.
