Jesus said to her, "Believe me, woman, the time will come when people will not worship the Father either on this mountain or in Jerusalem. You Samaritans do not really know whom you worship; but we Jews know whom we worship, because it is from the Jews that salvation comes. But the time is coming and is already here, when by the power of God's Spirit people will worship the Father as he really is, offering him the true worship that he wants. God is Spirit, and only by the power of his Spirit can people worship him as he really is."

The woman said to him, "I know that the Messiah will come, and when he comes, he will tell us everything."

Jesus answered, "I am he, I who am talking with you."

John 4:21-26

Are you at the well? Is your soul thirsting for God? Do you need the cleansing and refreshment He offers? He is waiting to satisfy you with the "living water" of salvation and the gift of everlasting life.

Jesus is the only fountain who can satisfy the thirsty soul.
