Thirsty

Psalm 42- "As a deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants for you, O God." In an arid place like Israel the picture of a deer thirsting for water is vivid. I so wish I might thirst for God as that deer looking for water. He is the only thing that will quench my thirst, that will satisfy my soul. I am thirsty for Him this morning. And then I read Jesus words in John, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." He is the water that will satisfy my soul, he is the only one. I'm thankful I have found that water. I pray I offer it freely to others as well.
