WHAT KIND OF WATER


Picture this:

You are a young or middle-aged woman
At the water cooler
Of your office
Getting a drink of water

A young man comes up
And approaches you

In addition
This young man
Is not the same color, race, or religion
As you

The man
Proceeds to tell you
About a different kind of water

“If you drink the water
I give you
You will
Never be thirsty again
And you will have
Eternal life”

You look at this man
Like he was crazy
And think to yourself,
“What did he just say?”

You ask
For some of this water
And the man replies,
“Go call your husband”

You reply
“I have no husband
This man says, “I know”
And proceeds to tell you
About every significant relationship
That you ever had
In your life

At this point
You take a step back
You recognize,
“This is no ordinary man”

You think to yourself
This man is a prophet
And say,
“I know the Messiah is coming”

The man says,
“I who speak to you
Am he”

This man Jesus
Tells the woman
NOT to tell anyone
What he said and did

Of course she does
What would you do

Better yet Lord
Please tell us

WHERE WE CAN FIND
THIS LIVING WATER
