Thirsty?

​Quote of the Day:  “You don't know what thirst is until you drink for the first time.”
Carlos Ruiz Zafón
 
No matter what you do for fun – play video games, play sports, exercise, dance, hydration is important.  Water is necessary for you to perform, feel great, and to live.
 
Water is the one thing that the body cannot live without for long periods of time. 
 
It is the same way with God.  He has created us with an internal well – our soul.  And just like our bodies, it needs to be filled with water in order to survive.  Only this water, as Jesus pinned it, is living water that refreshes not only our physical bodies, but our soul as well.  This water is made from God's unconditional love for us.  And no matter what, that love does not change!
 
Sometimes, when we have done things that are bad, made negative choices, or we have experienced bad things, we become sad and feel as if there is no hope for us. 
 
But we cannot forget that no matter what, God is still willing to give us this living water.
 
With it, we can feel new.  We can become stronger. 
We can find the will to live another day - to keep going because we are loved and we are important!
 
This type of water takes away pain, hurt, depression, and sadness.
This type of water brings hope.
It gives us strength - Strength needed to forgive ourselves, to forgive others.
We can live better. We can be better.
 
Remember today that this water is freely given.
 
Just ask God for it and watch how it makes everything new.
