Evening: Psalms 68:1-36; John 4:43-54
Stories
that ‘hold no water’ are untrue. Jeremiah calls them “cracked cisterns”
because they cannot hold God’s “living water,” and that is the truth we
seek. When people believe untruths, there is trouble. Belief is
complicated, though. We may think we cannot be certain of something
without proof. Yet with proof, belief is irrelevant! Jesus
complained that some refused to believe him without seeing “signs and
wonders.” He performed signs, though, not to prove who he was but
because he could help. Untruths cannot hold the living water we need;
and they cannot help.
