Come to Me and Drink

"If any man thirst, let him come to Me and drink."
John 7:37

Who does not thirst? Who has not mind thirsts or heart thirsts , soul thirsts or body thirsts? Well, no matter which or whether I have them all - "Come unto Me and" remain thirsty? Ah no! "Come unto Me and drink!"

What, can Jesus meet my need? Yes, and more than meet it. No matter how intricate my path, how difficult my service; no matter how sad my bereavement, how far away my loved ones; no matter how helpless I am, how deep are my soul yearnings - Jesus can meet all. All, and more than meet.

Thank for the comment! :)
I enjoy your blog. I came across it on a google search for the lyrics to "In Christ Alone".
