The reason some of us are such poor specimens of Christianity is because we have no Almighty Christ. We have Christian attributes and experiences, but there is no abandonment to Jesus Christ.
From John 4:11-14: “The woman said to him, ‘Sir, you have no bucket, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? Are you greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us the well, and with his sons and his flocks drank from it? Jesus said to her, ‘Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I will give them will never be thirsty. The water that I will give will become in them a spring of water gushing up to eternal life.’ The woman said to him, ‘Sir, give me this water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep coming here to draw water.'”
It almost sounds like she misses the metaphor, huh? 🙂

You got it! It reads like sort of “duh” moment. Hope your week has gone well.

Kind of does. 🙂 Then again, in some circles playing along with the metaphor used to be considered a high art form.
It’s… been an adventure.

Such a truthful quote. We need to completely surrender to Jesus.
