These springs are never dry! ',

Back to The Pastor's Morning Visit


"All my springs are in You." Psalm 87:7

Jesus is the fountain of living water. 

The wells of salvation are found in His person, work and Word. 

He says, "If any man thirsts—let him come unto Me and drink." The springs of comfort, peace, and salvation—are all in Him. These waters . . .
cleanse from all defilement; 
refresh the faint and weary; 
and satisfy the longing soul. 

These springs bespeak plenitude, for whoever will, may freely come and take. These springs are never dry! 

We are absolutely dependent on Jesus—this is our mercy. 
We are absolutely independent on any besides—this is our happiness. 
Our desires should concentrate in Him; 
our affections should be fixed upon Him; 
our expectations should be only from Him. 

In Jesus is all possible variety! He can do, and bestow—all we can possibly need or desire; for "it has pleased the Father that in Him should ALL fullness dwell." 

If all our springs are in Jesus—then let us not then look to any broken earthly cistern. Let us with joy draw water out of theever-flowing fountains of the Saviour. Let us ask—and He will give us Living Water; that we may thirst no more. Only what comes from Jesus—can satisfy the soul.
