Your Quench is never satisfied

We look, we search, we read, we listen but we still cannot see, cannot hear, cannot believe. Why is this? Habits. Unhappiness, loneliness, anger, frustration, controversy and others are all habits we have become accustom to. We bear these misgivings as a weight that we accept. We have all been contaminated by the defeatist suggestions and teachings of our elders, its no ones fault it is just the continuation of generations passing their traditions, cultures and ideas that are never questioned.
Many of us would rather listen to others who speak only about themselves and their philosophies. But when someone mentions God you turn away and dont accept. For some reason we attach a stigma to God incorporating other peoples negativity and deceptive tones into our thoughts making us believe this person is some religious nut or fanatic. If someone comes before you with the word of God and you immediately turn him away think to yourself what is the reason. Have you studied the word of God? Have you truly spent time understanding the lessons God teaches. We can all stay bitter, defensive and ignorant because this is easy. Why? Because most people are still in the dark. Trapped by their self pity, worry, anxiety, fear and stress. They cannot see a brighter future for they have not yet decided to shift their view of life. Its hard, I know. I was once a lost soul caught up in the endless noise that encircled my mind. The door was always there but my self indulges and nothing ever good happens to me attitude blinded me from ever opening that door. When you realize the Bible is a gift for mankind that teaches us to begin thinking correctly and to fill the heart and soul with Love, joy, forgiveness and peace, your life will then open up and the morning sun and evening sunsets will be more glorious then you ever imagined.
I go back to the title of this blog and relate it to one of my favorite scriptures in John 4. This is when Jesus sat with the Samaritan women at the drinking well. The conversation they had enlightens us to the powerful words Jesus speaks that if heard correctly will open many doors for those who are lost. Picture this, Jesus strolls into town, its hot from the desert sun and he's thirsty. He walks over to the well and sits down. He's tired and beat. A Samaritan women walks over to get some water for herself and Jesus says, "Please can you give me a drink." Imagine that, the son of God asking you for a drink! The women responds," I am surprised you ask me since you are a Jewish man and I am a Samaritan women. So Jesus says,"If you only knew the free gift of God and who it is that is asking you for water, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water." Its so cool what he says here; I'm right here in front of you, my love is free, its here whenever you want it. Ask for it and you will receive the living water, the water that clears the mind; water that fills the soul with love and peace. Jesus then goes on and says, "Everyone who drinks this water,(referring to the water man teaches with, the ideas you believe in that have not brought peace)will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give will never be thirsty. The water I give will become the spring of water pushing up inside that person, giving eternal life." If you are still thirsty and your throat is parched maybe its time to start drinking from the fountain of God.
