Be Still . . .

O God, you are my God,
     earnestly I seek you;
  my soul thirsts for you,
     my body longs for you,
  in a dry and weary land
     where there is no water.
(Psalms 63:1 (NIV))

All too often we hear words that speak of a dry and weary land where there is no water.

Stop to think about this statement.

Without water, we die. We start to lose consciousness and eventually lose all touch with reality because our body has started to shut down.

We can go for days and even weeks without eating, yet, we cannot go for much more than twenty-four hours without water!

Just as our bodies need water to survive, our souls need God to survive.

We need to drink deeply of the life-giving "water" that freely flows from God through Jesus Christ. This water is freely given. It is available to any who desires it. There is only one stipulation, and that it can only be received by receiving Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior.

We thirst for water to satisfy our bodies.

Do you thirst for the living water from God to satisfy your soul?

In today's world, everyone thirsts after something. Make sure that it's something that can completely satisfy your soul.

Why are you still thirsty?
