It is Jehovah himself who declares :"To anyone thirsting I will will give from the fountain of the water of life free." (Revelation 216b) 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 Samari. He told her "Whoever drinks the water that I will give him will get thirsty at all, but the water I will give him will become a fountain of water bubbling up to impart everlasting life." That fountain of water of life" flows from God through Christ as his provision for restoring mankind to 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 interests in favor of telling other the good news! -JOHN 4:14, 15, 28, 29.
