Thankful Thursday ~ A Thirst that is Never Quenched

I've been thinking a lot about thirsting for God over the last year. It's become a theme in my life; so much so, that it was the topic of my lesson this past Saturday. I am thankful that the God I serve is a fountain of water. He satisfies my soul in ways that only He can. He is a never ending well no matter how often or how long I drink. God is more than enough for me!

In my lesson, I've used this quote from John Piper from A Godward Life.

"When you drink my water, your thirst is not destroyed forever. If it did that, would you feel any need of my water afterward? That is not my goal. I do not want self-sufficient saints. When you drink my water, it makes a spring in you. A spring satisfies thirst, not by removing the need you have for water, but by being there to give you water whenever you get thirsty. Again and again and again."

Thank you, God, for creating my thirst and for satisfying it! You are amazing!
