"As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after thee
You alone are my heart's desire
And I long to worship thee"
I hope you are in a great condition.
Do you ever feel so thirsty and exhausted after you have done some sports? I bet you do.
What will you be looking for to satisfy your thirst?
Yes... You will drink a lot of water for sure!
However, you will stop drinking when you are already filled up or satisfied, right? Otherwise, you will vomit everything.
On my today's share, I would like to share with you my own experiences and His truths about three types of "THIRST":
1. Thirst from Empty Soul
This soul is for those who have not repented and known God. They are seeking something outside there that can only be found in God, but they are still not looking for God.
I accepted God when I was in first-grade of my high school. Before I accepted Him, I just played around like an "innocent" child. What a "messy" life, isn't it? Seeking happiness without knowing what the true meaning of true happiness is.
2. Thirst from Dry Soul
Dry... it means this soul has been poured out by water once, but it becomes dry later. This soul is for those who ignore God and think that God has forgotten and forsaken them.
After I accepted God, I felt a little bit different--a little but life-changing. It seems I can see this world from a brand new and better perspective than before. As day goes by, I felt nothing special anymore. FYI, this period of time I had finished my bible reading from Genesis to Revelation, but I felt it's only an obligation or a "terror" to be a "new" Christian.
3. Thirst from Satisfied Soul
This soul ever feels satisfied by God and they want God more and more.
Right now, I feel so thirsty for Him. :D
Once, friend of mine ever told me "I do not like "worldly" songs." And I asked, "Why?" "Well, I just do not like it. No words I can explain it." he uttered.
For the first time, it does not make any sense for me. What came to my mind is "OMG!! He is so nerd and so religious" or whatever you may call. However, believe it or not, I feel the same now. Day by day I need more of Him. I cannot say it in words as well, it just comes naturally.
He is the eternal and living water. As you come and be thirst for Him, He will satisfy you like never before. As you may know, you need to drink pure water at least 8 times a day. It applies the same as you need God more and more.
I do believe you will be happy around your lovely people or friends because you know your friends will comfort and "satisfy" your inner needs.
Do you feel so "thirsty and hungry" of your spiritual life today?
"All who are thirsty
All who are weak
Come to the fountain"
Do try this at home!
Have a great week ahead!
Jah Bless!
