2. SOMETHING FOR YOUR HEART

GOD'S STORY--ON YOUR OWN

A Sampler from John's Gospel
Thirsty? (John 7:37-52)

On the last and greatest day of the Festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.

On hearing his words, some of the people said, "Surely this man is the Prophet."

Others said, "He is the Messiah."

Still others asked, "How can the Messiah come from Galilee? Does not Scripture say that the Messiah will come from David's descendants and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?" Thus the people were divided because of Jesus. Some wanted to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him.

Finally the temple guards went back to the chief priests and the Pharisees, who asked them, "Why didn't you bring him in?"

"No one ever spoke the way this man does," the guards replied.

"You mean he has deceived you also?" the Pharisees retorted. "Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him? No! But this mob that knows nothing of the law--there is a curse on them."

Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who was one of their own number, asked, "Does our law condemn a man without first hearing him to find out what he has been doing?"

They replied, "Are you from Galilee, too? Look into it, and you will find that a prophet does not come out of Galilee."

HMMM...
How important is it to actually be thirsty for life when you come to Jesus?

HEAR WHAT JESUS HAS TO SAY TO YOU

Jesus has something to say to you. He wants you to know that you are part of something much bigger...you're part of God's story. But what does that mean? In this 60-day devo you'll receive daily letters from Jesus and spend some time journaling your thoughts back to him as you take part in the conversation and learn what your part is in God's story.
