We've all been there—reaching for things we hope will fill us up, only to find ourselves still thirsty. Maybe it's scrolling for connection, working for validation, or shopping for satisfaction. These "broken cisterns," as Jeremiah calls them, can't hold what we're really longing for. But here's the beautiful truth: God offers us something better—a spring of living water that never runs dry. And when we drink from that source, something amazing happens. The grace we receive doesn't just stay inside us; it flows out through our lives in meaningful ways. We were literally created for good works—not to earn God's love, but to express it. The work we do, the character we build, the fruit we produce—it all becomes an overflow of being loved and filled by the right Source. So the question isn't whether you're perfect or have it all together. The question is simply this: Where are you going when you're thirsty? Because what we turn to shapes not just our own lives, but everyone watching. And when people see us drinking from living water, they start to wonder where they might find it too.
