The Israelites and Samaritans lived in a dry, thirsty land; in a desert. It is hard for many of us to imagine how valuable water is in such a desperate place. Yet, we live in a spiritually dry and thirsty land; we are often oblivious to the lack. I wonder how many times a day someone tells us they are thirsty. Perhaps not, Please give me some of that water, but they put it another way. When they speak of problems with their children, troubles in their marriage, trials in their life, they are really saying, I am thirsty. When they are short tempered, worn out and angry, they are saying they dont know how to quench their thirst. I also wonder how many times we dont really understand their plea and their thirst. How many times we walk past opportunities to minister to them. Look for the thirsty and look for the dry. Hear their cries and offer them living water.
