It is Jehovah himself who declares: "To anyone thirsting I will give from the fountain of water of life free." (Revelation 21:6b) To quench that thirst, a person has to be conscious of his spiritual need and be willing to accept "the water" that Jehovah provides. (Isaiah 55:1; Matthew 5:3) What "water"? Jesus himself answered that question when witnessing to a woman beside a well in Samaria. He told her: "Whoever drinks from the water that I will give him will never get thirsty at all, but the the water that I give to him will become in him a fountain of water bubbling up to impart everlasting life." That "fountain of the water of life" flows from God through Christ as his provision for restoring mankind to human perfection of life. Like the Samaritan woman. how eager we should be to drink deep from that fountain! And like that woman, how ready we should be to drop mundane interest in favor of telling others the good news! - JOHN 4:14, 15, 28, 29.
