Good choice, Brother John. John chose the hymns this morning. That's a good choice. The woman said, how is it that you would speak to me? How can it be? Do you find that amazing that the Lord would speak to you and do what he did for you from heights of bliss to depths of woe? The Lord came a long way for this woman.

John 4, John chapter 4, we've looked at this so many times. This story means a great deal to some people in here. I believe it means a great deal to every single sinner the Lord has saved by His grace. Whether it's a woman or a man or a boy or a girl, the Lord saves all His people the same way. Same way, he comes where they are, he creates a need and convicts them of their sin, speaks to them, tells them, reveals himself to them. That's what he did to this woman. Look at verse four, it says, he must needs go through Samaria.

It's not because it was the shortest route, or on the way to Galilee, In John 10, the Lord, John 10 is the story of the shepherd come to find his lost sheep. Christ came into the world to save sinners, even the chief. And he said about the shepherd, he knows his sheep, he comes and finds them, calls them, they follow him. And he said in John 10, 10, he said, other sheep I have, which are not of this fold, them also I must bring.

He must needs go through this town, Sychar, to find this woman, because she belongs to him. He came for her. Verse five, so he left, verse five, he coming to a city of Samaria. which is called Sychar, the word means intoxicating liquor. She lives in a place that's like this world. The whole world is drunk with lust and desires and pleasures, intoxicated and out of their mind with the things of this world. And that was this woman. They came to this place. to deliver her from that, from the world.

In verse five, he came to this place near to the parcel of ground Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Now, this is the Lord Jesus Christ. This is God manifest in the flesh. This is not the first time he came here. He was here in this place 2000 years earlier. In fact, he came to meet Jacob to do the same thing for Jacob he did to this woman. Reveal himself to her and wrestle him down to the ground and say, what's your name? He did this exact same thing to Jacob and here he is again 2,000 years later. Now here he is, I hope he's here again 2,000 years later. Don't you? Do you need him to speak to you? lest I be caught up in this intoxicated world. Who gave this whale to Jacob? Where'd this whale come from? Where do whales come from?

Men dig them. Well, hold on. You can dig and dig and dig. You might not find water, right? The Lord gives water. He mentions water. Water is mentioned in this chapter eight times. That's pertinent right now, isn't it? Huh? This world, this part of the United States needs water, don't it? We're in drought. How many people are calling on God for water?

And when he sends it, and he will, he always does, he's so good. We've been through droughts before. The judgment of God always is. Too little water or too much is the judgment of God. Upon ungrateful, unthankful, God-hating men and women, rebels, creatures. Who's thanking the Lord, are you?

What about the heat? I hope you're not complaining about the heat. And the revelation that the seven angels, or the angels opened seven vials of plagues upon the world, which we are experiencing, just like Egypt. And one of those plagues was heat. He said, he scorched men by the sun with heat and they blasphemed God and repented not to give him the glory. So whatever you do, do not say it's too hot. It's not as hot as it should be. Or gonna be for some people. You hear me? Don't do it. Don't be thankless. Be thankful.

Say, Lord, if I got what I deserve, you'd burn me up right now. Thank you that Christ went into the fiery furnace for me. So, he came, Jacob's well was there, the Lord gave Jacob this well, and that's the Lord who's sitting on the well. Verse six, Jacob's well was there, Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey. Oh my, from heights of bliss to depths of woe. In loving kindness thou didst go.

We sang that, did you? Enter into it. How can it be? Why would he come this far? The Lord came. A long ways. The Lord, Jesus, as a man, walked thousands of miles in just three years. What was he doing 30 years prior to that? Are you serious? He's still working, but anonymously. Oh yeah. He said, I must be about my father's business.

As a 12-year-old boy, walked thousands of miles. He would go from Tyre and Sidon to what's that lowest city? I forget the lowest city in Jerusalem, but he covered compass land from north, south, east, east and west to find his people, to save his people. He went all the way to Tyre and Sidon for one woman. He must need to go through Samaria.

He has a divinely ordained appointment with a woman that he chose before the foundation of the world. This woman belongs to him. This is her husband, her true husband. She's had five, none of them worked out. She's trying out another one. She found out later who her faithful husband was. Jesus Christ. He came for her, and once he's come for her, he goes, I'll never leave her, never leave her. Are you married to him?

Now it was about the sixth hour, he sat thus on the well, the well. It mentions this well, it mentions the Lord, it begins with the Lord, everything does. He mentions the well, the well, the well, four or five times, the well, not a well, the well. And it says, the woman, definite article, over and over again, not a woman, she's a woman, but this is the woman that Christ came for, a certain woman, at this well, the well, there was only one well here. And I'm here to tell you.

There's only one well of salvation. Christ is all. He's the well and he's the water. He's the well. He's the source of life. Water is the water of life. How significant that is, how current, how relevant it is that man can't go three days without water. They asked some people in New York City one time where water came from. They said, well, the faucet. He turned on the faucet.

Well, where's that come from? Well, the water department. Well, where's that come from? Man will give everybody credit and glory but God. But when God reveals to you that everything you have is from his hands, you'll give him all the glory and give man none. Where's water come from? The water of life?

From the sky. Think about that. Stop and think about it. Oh, that man would just stop and think that water, precious, life-giving water just falls out of the sky. Which is a picture of Christ, the water of life. He'll come down like rain, Scripture said.

Well, here he sat on this whale. What is he doing? He's waiting on the woman. Now Isaiah 30 says, the Lord will wait to be gracious and he'll have mercy on you and you'll exalt him when he does. This woman went away. He said, I met him. They cry. He sat on the way about the sixth hour and I said, 12 noon, everything's significant. God wrote this book. This is 12 noon, it's high noon. What is high noon? That's when the sun is shining at its peak, at its zenith, at its glory.

And Malachi 4.1 says, unto you, the son of righteousness shall arise with healing in his wing. It'll burn like an oven upon the earth. But to you that look for him, shall the son of righteousness arise with healing in his wings. The sun is shining on this woman right now.

And she doesn't know it yet. Like Saul of Tarsus, who didn't know this, the Lord Jesus. He thought he was gonna, what he was gonna do with Jesus, you know. And the Lord Jesus, suddenly, a light shone from heaven, round about him, and apprehended him, and engulfed him, and put him in the dirt. He didn't see the light, the light came and found him. He was blind. In fact, he didn't see until he was blind. The Lord blinded him by the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son. Now, women didn't, everybody in town had to come to this same well if you wanted water.

Complain about that. When's the last time you had to go and take a bucket to the well, ladies, huh? All your washing and all that, huh? Anybody? Some of you old folks used to do that. Aren't you thankful now you don't have to go to the well and bring a bucket back?

Well, every woman in town had to do this for their day's washing and for the cooking and drink and so on and so forth. And women didn't go at high noon. That's the hottest part of the day, was it? They went in the morning, didn't they? So most of the town women would come in the morning when it's cool of the day, and they'd bring their water pots, and they would gather water for the days.

And I'm just sure that those women would sit around that well and talk to one another like women are prone to do, 20,000 words a day. And what'd they talk about? I tell you, one thing they probably talked about was this woman right here. She's a notorious woman. Everybody in town knows her. She'd been married five times. And she's living with a fella now. Can you believe that? What a...

She, you know, they're all talking about her. So that's why she came at noon. Nobody's there. All her accusers... Is this familiar? All her accusers are not there. Who's there? Are you with me? That just got a hold of me. I've never put that in the correlation there. All her accusers are gone, Helen.

Oh, who's there to meet her? The one that's going to justify. The one that's going to forgive her of all her sins. The one that's going to wash her in His own blood and she'll have no more sin while those other ladies that are talking about her are condemned. He didn't come for them. He came for the woman. Is that you? Has He revealed the gospel to you? Where did He do it? We read in Isaiah 12, 9, 12, that you'll draw water out of the wells of salvation. Isaiah 12, 3. Wells? Oh, yes. Oh, yes. There are wells where Christ is found, where the gospel is found, not everywhere.

Like this well, usually there's just one in a city. How blessed Sychar was to have this deep, sweet well of water. How blessed is Rocky Mountain to have this well here, where Christ is found. Where hungry and thirsty sinners can come, like the heart panting after the water brook. Is that you? So panteth my soul after thee, O God. Well, come to the well. That's all we serve here. Isn't it? You're my witness. Isn't it? Isn't it, Paulie? That's all we do here, is lift up Christ crucified.

Is preach the water of life, Christ, for thirsty sinners. When Christ said you'll never thirst again, what he meant was that you'll never have an insatiable desire and lust for the things of this world like you used to. but you'll find your fulfillment, you'll find your enjoyment, you'll find your comfort, your peace, your salvation, your rest, your everything in Christ. Once you do, you'll never thirst again like you did before. I'm preaching this like I've never preached it before. I'm looking at it like I've never looked at it before.

This is, it's living water. It's his voice, if he speaks, your heart and mind, it's brand new. We need new. Every morning, we need his mercies. Oh, people, listen to me now. This is life. Well, they come with the woman. Why's she coming? Well, she's coming to draw water. It's what she does every day. Well, how is it that this very day, the Lord himself just happened to be sitting there waiting? Is this her lucky day?

No, no, no, no. The Lord ordained it. And if you belong to Him and whoever belongs to Him, there's going to be a day when He, the Lord Jesus Christ, is going to bring them to this well where the gospel is preached, where Christ is preached. That's how God saves sinners. Okay, it's not the whale, it's the water. All right, but he'll bring you to hear this gospel, and Christ waits to be gracious on his people in his time, and he will speak to them, and they'll go away filled. They'll go away rejoicing. There cometh a woman. Our Lord said, no man can come unto me. except the father which hath sent me, draw him." She came to draw water. She came because Christ is drawing her. Jesus saith unto her, verse seven, give me to drink.

Did he ask her? Did he? Did he? Did he ask her? Did you read that? She said, why are you asking me? He didn't ask her. Did he? Did he, Todd? No, no, no. God doesn't ask man for anything. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Isaiah, Psalm 50 says, if I was hungry, I wouldn't tell you. And that's what false religion across the board says. God needs you. Church can't be church without you. Won't you let him in? He wants you so badly. You just need to let him. That's the wrong God. That's another Jesus. That's not the Jesus Christ of this scripture. He gave command to her.

John, Psalm 71.3, we love it.

Thou hast given commandment to save me. Aren't you glad? She wouldn't have come if he hadn't said, come. She wouldn't have found out who he was unless he revealed himself to her. He created a need, he created a thirst, he gave her repentance, it was a goodness to repent, and he revealed the I Am to her heart and soul.

Salvation is of the Lord. She didn't come because she's seeking Christ. No, no, no. She didn't come to call on the Lord. The Lord came to call on her. That's right. They come at the woman. He said, give me the drink. Do you know that the Lord didn't come for water? He's thirsty. No, it doesn't say He's thirsty. There's something else it just came to. It does not say He was thirsty. Does it, Vicki? So he was weary.

One time, the disciples said, Lord, eat something. He said, I am. He gave him something to eat? He said, I've got meat to eat, you don't know what. He was tempted by Satan 40 days and 40 nights. He didn't eat one thing, didn't drink one drop of water. Why? In his belly. that he's telling her about. He didn't come to get drank from her. He came to give water to her. His disciples, verse eight, were gone away into the city. He sent them away.

You want to hear a good message, a needful message, very helpful message from Genesis 32 on alone with God. The Lord made them leave so he could be alone with this woman. And if the Lord deals with you, He's gonna deal with you one-on-one. One-on-one.

Now the Lord speaks to His people through the means of preaching. That's what the scripture said. Through the means of preaching, what I'm doing. It's not the preacher, it's not the preaching, it's the gospel, it's Christ. It's the Spirit of God. But this is what He uses. Like His disciples, He used them.

Okay? But when the Lord speaks to you, you will not hear the voice of a man, you won't think, and you will not be, when he finally speaks to you, though you be in a crowd of people, you're gonna feel like the Lord's, you're alone with the Lord. I remember. And it's still that way, I hope and pray, that the times when the Lord blesses you and some of you say to me when it's over, you come back and say, that was just for me. Well, no, it's for everybody. Well, Lord bless me.

That's what he must do, speak to you. So he was alone with this woman. Then saith the woman, verse nine of Samaria unto him, how is it that thou, being a Jew, ask drink, askest drink of me. She's an Armenian. He didn't ask her. I'm a woman of Samaria. The Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. And I thought about Psalm 8.

What is man that thou art mindful of him? Every one of us ought to be asking this question. How is it that Jesus Christ would have anything to do with me? Jesus answered, oh listen to this, verse 10, if thou knewest, he could say so much, he could say eternal truth in one word. If thou knewest the gift of God and who it is. What's the gift of God? Christ. The unspeakable gift, isn't it? Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

If thou knewest, you won't know unless he reveals himself to you. If thou knewest the gift of God, salvation is by grace, it's a gift of God, not an offer. It's a gift bestowed, it's an act upon you, in you, for you. You don't have anything to do with it, you're a recipient. If you knew the gift of God and who it is, who the gift of God is, the gift of eternal life is in God's Son. the gift of righteousness, the gift of sanctification, the gift of justification, the gift of pardon, the gift, the gift of peace with God, the gift, it's a gift, it's a gift, salvation by grace. If you knew the gift of God and who it is that saith unto thee that gives command, give me to drink, read it with me. Thou wouldst have asked of him. and he would have given thee living water. If you knew, you would ask. Nobody asks until the Lord reveals him to them.

Do they? Did you? Patrick, did you? Were you asking? He said, seek and you'll find. Ask and be given. Seek, knock, didn't he? Were you asking, seeking, and knocking when the Lord came to you? Were you? Were you? Where are you, John Sheasley? Were you asking, seeking, and knocking?

You were in false religion like this woman. But God came to you if you knew. And he's, so he, the son of God has come and given his people an understanding that they might know him that is true. And then you start asking. What's he do? He starts giving. Start giving. Read on. The woman said, he said, I would have given you living water.

The woman said unto him, sir, thou hast nothing to draw with. Like I said, she's in false religion. She thought he was asking her. She didn't know who he was, the Lord of glory, right in front of her. She didn't know him. She said, you have nothing to draw with. She got it all wrong. You go over to John 15 where he said to his disciples, without me, you can't do nothing. You have nothing. This woman, you have nothing.

Well, I got this water pot. Yeah, a broken cistern. Oh, the God of, see, Christ is all and in all. In Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, all the treasures of fullness of wisdom and knowledge. He has all things, people. We have nothing. We have nothing. Unless He draws us, unless He gives us water, we will remain empty. Oh no, man's got it all wrong. We have nothing. We can do nothing. He has it all.

We need to ask Him. Draw me, give me, have mercy on me, pardon me, save me. We don't beg men and women to do something for God, come down front and accept Jesus. We beg Jesus Christ to accept men and women, and young boys and girls. Oh Lord, draw them. If you do, they will come. You gotta make them thirsty. You gotta make them see that they're sinners. Like this woman. Salvation's of the Lord, that ain't doctrine, it's fact, it's truth. He's the truth of salvation. If he doesn't come and speak to you, you're gonna remain lost. Hmm. Oh, Lord, come. We don't have anything to draw with. You do. The well is deep, that's for sure. Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God is ways past finding out.

Where do you have this living water? Are you greater than our verse 12? Keep reading with me, don't let me lose you people. Ask the Spirit of God right now to perk you up, okay? This is living water. It's hot and dry out there in this world we live in. You need this right now, right now. Every man, woman, boy and girl in this room needs it.

Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us his whale? Huh? He drank of it too and his children as cattle. Are you greater than Jacob? Our Lord said in another place, He said, Jonah came and the men of Nineveh repented. A greater than Jonah is here. He said the queen of Sheba came a long way to hear Solomon. He said a greater than Solomon is here. Who is this? This is the great God and creator of all things. And I'm preaching a great salvation. It takes a great work of God to make us realize that we even need saving. This woman doesn't think she's all right. Still. You can't do anything. You don't have anything. You need me to help you, Jesus. How many women are like that today? How many men? How many people are like that today? Lost and don't know it.

Our Lord said, Verse 13, whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again. The water of this world, Ecclesiastes 1 says, the eye is never satisfied with seeing, the ear is not satisfied with hearing, the loins are not satisfied with lust, man is not satisfied, it doesn't satisfy, it doesn't satisfy. You drink of it, you get your fullness of it, and it goes out in a draft and you want more, more, more each time. Can't get enough to fulfill your lust, You're craving, you're bodily, fleshly craving. It cannot be satisfied. It can't until you get old, then these things you have no pleasure in. And then you just die.

What a life to live. That ain't living. He that hath the Son hath life. Living water. The water of life. Christ is life. He's not just a part of life. In Him we live and move and have our being. We need to know Him. We need to bow to Him. We need to believe Him. We need to trust Him. We need to walk with Him, talk with Him, call upon Him. We need Him. And so many people don't know it. She doesn't know it. He's going to make her know it. This water leaves you thirsty. She kept coming day in and day out. She keeps coming. Why does she keep coming? Because it doesn't satisfy her.

He said, whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst. The water that I shall give him or her shall be in him. A well of water springing up unto everlasting life in you. Christ in you is a hope of glory. What's that? Faith in Christ. Need for Christ. Love for Christ. Belief in Christ. Trust in Christ. Peace in Christ. Comfort in Christ. Wisdom, sanctification, redemption in Christ. It's all in Christ. Of his fullness shall we receive grace for grace. It's Christ in you.

Hmm. That did something to her. Sir, give me this water. Why don't you say that right now? To the Lord. Sir, Lord, give me this water. He said, if you ask, Didn't he? Have you asked? If Christ is not in you, you have not asked. But you said you can't come. He said, ask. Don't you dare be a fatalist or a hyper-Calvinist or a hard shell or whatever and say, well, if he doesn't call me, I won't come, I'm gonna wait on him. No, no, you don't. He said, you ask, you seek, you call. Whosoever call me, say. If you don't call, it's your fault. Oh yeah. But preacher, I don't understand. Yes, you do. Oh yes, you do. Yes, you do.

I didn't come to Christ because I didn't want to come. And I did come because he said come. And I still wouldn't come if he didn't say come. But yet he has created him in me. Psalm 110.3, made me willing in a day of his power where I say, I need this water. This is how you know. He keeps calling me, come. Give me this water. Can you say that right now? Give me this water. Yeah, I'm ain't never thirsty. He said, go call your husband. Come here. Her husband had come calling on her. This is Hosea. He's come for Gomer. She doesn't know it.

If you're going to. If I was sitting right there where you are, I'd be hollering and shouting. Brothers and sisters, he came for this Gomer. Sold himself on the auction block of sin and will still be there today if Christ hadn't come and bought me with a price and said, you're mine now. You're not for another, you're mine.

Go call your husband. Come here. The woman said, I have no husband. Our Lord said, thou hast well said, I have no husband. Thou hast had five husbands. And he whom thou now hast, you're living with in sin, in fornication, is not your husband. It's true. You just condemned yourself. He, her words by a man, a man's word will be justified or condemned. You know, that's what the scripture said. And here's the thing, if you like the publican in the temple say, God be merciful to me, the sinner, you'll go away justified. But if you're like the Pharisee and come, well, I've got a few faults, but not too many.

I haven't done this, haven't done that. I haven't been married five times. Condemned! She said, I have no husband. You're right. You're living in sin. And it's still sin, people. We don't condone that. Our Lord doesn't condone it. He said, harlots and publicans, he said, fornicators and adulterers shall not inherit the kingdom of God. That's what it said, right? But God, who's merciful, for every fornicator or adulterer that says, God, be merciful. Please forgive me. He wept sweetly, completely. Completely and you'll find out you now have one true husband one husband.

So she tried me in and Got no satisfaction with Christ the God man came for her and Woman said I perceive your prophet and she said our fathers. So she's trying to trying to get off the subject. She's feeling uneasy. Do you reckon she hung her head when he said, yes, you've had five husbands and you're living with a man now? Do you think she may have dropped her head?

Do you reckon? So everyone that drops their head and Ask the Lord, and He reveals Himself to you, and you'll look up. You're gonna look up, finally, into the face of a forgiving, merciful, and gracious Lord. The only one that can. She said, change the subject. We worshipped in the mountain, our fathers, and you say they were idolaters, Samaritans. And He said, Jerusalem's a place where men ought to worship. And Jesus said unto her, woman, Believe me. Every word. Believe me. Or believe me. The hour cometh when you shall neither in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem worship the Father.

He said to her, it revealed her ignorance. He revealed her sin. He revealed her insatiable appetite for the world and sin and her living in sin, and now he reveals her utter ignorance of God. You worship, you know not what. We know what we worship, salvations of the Jews. Do you know what that means? I'm running out of time, I can't talk about it. Much.

You gotta have three things today to worship God, a tabernacle, a high priest, and a sacrifice, a lamb, blood, okay? A high priest, a tabernacle, and a sacrifice, these three. You still gotta worship God that way. Salvations of the Jew, chosen people, elect people, Jacob have I loved. You gotta have three things to worship God. And it's outside of you, totally.

The tabernacle, the high priest takes the blood of a lamb into the Holy of Holies. These three, these three are one. Christ Jesus. Salvation's in Christ alone. He is all that we need. Our high priest, our lamb, our tabernacle, our place. You don't know what you worship. The hour cometh, verse 23, and now is when true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit, from the heart, with the new man, and in truth.

What is truth? Pilate asked that, didn't he? What is truth? It ain't a what. It ain't a doctrine. It's a person. Christ said, I am the truth. And truth, the Father seeketh such to worship him. No one will until he reveals the truth to him. God is spirit. They that worship him must worship him in spirit and truth. God is not worshiped with men's hands.

You see all this going on today in religion, all this. Now everybody stand up, let's give Jesus' hand. Come on now, get the band, come on band, let's get going. That's flesh. God's worshiped in spirit. The Holy Spirit who takes the things of Christ, the truth, and shows Him unto us.

When we find Him, hear Him, we don't need that stuff. We don't need flesh. And then we begin to Philippians 3, 3. Worship God for sending Christ, rejoice in Christ Jesus, our sacrifice, our lamb, and have no confidence in the flesh. Get it out of here. We don't need flesh.

We need the Spirit of God to come and show us Christ. Right? Once you see and hear and need Christ like this water, you won't need anything else. It just gets in the way. True worship. The time come and now is. Right now, in this place, I believe this time. Well, the woman said, I know Messiah's coming. which is called Christ. When He has come, He'll tell us all things. Jesus saith unto her.

Have you heard His voice? Him. Have you heard His voice? What did He say? Look at it. I just speak unto you am he is an italics in it. Not there. I am that I am. We say Jesus Christ is God. Not just Son of God, He's God. Only God can forgive sin. God.

This woman, this is her Heavenly Father who's come for her, to call her. This is her husband who's come for her. This is her Lord, who's come for her, to make her his subject. This is her Redeemer, who's come to redeem her by his precious blood. This is her great high priest, who's going into the holy of holies for her, John, and offer up his precious blood on the mercy seat. This is her daisman, this is her mediator, the only one, it's not a woman, it's a man, Jesus Christ.

This is her peace with God, this is her lamb. It's come for her. Oh, happy day, oh, happy day. Man, what a day. What'd she do? Left her water pot. Look at it, look at it. Verse 28, she left her water pot. She got that handed down from her grandmother. It was so dear to her. It meant something to her, her mother. Every day she'd shine this pot up. She came, filled it up. She had to keep coming.

Empty? What it was was an empty vessel. You can keep filling it, but it'll just run out. Whatever it is that you think you want to receive some satisfaction from. some comfort from, some peace, whatever it is on this earth, it's an empty vessel. Drop it! Drop it! And lay hold of Christ. And your cup will keep running over.

In him is fullness, not empty, fullness. Well, what'd she do then? He left her water pot. First of all, those disciples, is there any self-righteousness in us people? Oh, my. The disciples said, what's he doing talking to her? She's a sinner. We're sorry about that, gentlemen. Well, the woman left her water pot, went her way in the city. What did she do? Where's she going? He's going to tell everybody what great things the Lord had done for her. So what's she saying?

You've got to come to our church and hear the choir. We're having a spaghetti dinner Saturday night and a big buck contest on next week. Huh? And a strawberry festival. Come! Come see a man. This is the Christ. I've seen the Christ. Come to the well where Christ is preached. Come and hear the Word of God, the Word of Christ. Come and hear Christ exalted. Anybody? It's hard to find, isn't it? In Sychar, this intoxicated place. Hard to find. Somebody's thirsty. As are they that hunger and thirst after, what? Righteousness to be filled. What is righteousness? Like water, it's not a what, it's a person. You tired of yourself? You tired of this world? You tired of sin? You vexed within and vexed without? Wanna be righteous? Huh, wanna know God, wanna know Christ? Want peace, want comfort? Ask, and he'll give you living water in the spring of that. Be with you forever. Stand with me, I'll dismiss.
