30. Jesus Satisfies Our Deepest Longing

SERIES: 31 REASONS TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS

John 4:13-14
Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

We celebrate Christmas because

  • Jesus came to satisfy our deepest spiritual need, our thirst for God
  • the water Jesus gives becomes a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life
  • we have the opportunity to receive this life-giving water

Lord I receive this life-giving water that you alone can give.
