When the Well Runs Dry

 What do you do when the well runs dry?

When you lift the bucket and it is empty? You turn the tap and there is nothing?

Well, you try and figure out if it is a bad pressure switch or a bad pump or the well itself has run dry. Something isn't working right to allow very important water to flow. 

How about in our spiritual life? Do we feel we cry out and there is nothing flowing? We fall to our knees yet we feel that things are empty?

We need to check things. 

Have we been filling the well with the Water that will never run dry?

📖  On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.  He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”  John 7:37-38

First of all coming to Jesus, accepting Him for who is is and what He has done for each of us. 

Then

Reading, listening, learning, communicating, desiring Him to reveal Himself to you.

📖  And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirst. Revelation 21:6

In those time we feel the well has run dry, we feel there is nothing to even draw water with..we just have to ask THE Living Water to fill us up. 

📖Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.” The woman said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water?  Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?” Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”John 4:10-14

 

🙏🏼 Lord, no matter how empty we feel today I pray we know we can cry out to You and ask to be filled!  Help us to remember that even if we feel empty we have a well that never runs dry. Thank you! Amen ❤️
