Come to the Well

In this season of trail, it is important to remind ourselves of the promises of Scripture. Throughout the Bible, God and Jesus are referred to in many different ways, using many different metaphors.

Many of those metaphors for the Divine evoke images of God's strength in times of trouble or need. The Bible calls God a Strong Tower, a Rock, a Refuge, a Shelter, a Great Physician, a Healer, the Almighty, and our Deliverer. And of course, this list just begins to scratch the surface.

This Sunday Pastor Lauren and I will be talking about Jesus as our Shepherd, the one who would lay down his life for his sheep. But today, I want to share one of my favorite worship songs with you. In this song, the metaphor for God/Jesus is a "well." In this time when we may be feeling a bit empty, run dry, or just stranded in a lonely desert, this song offers a beautiful invitation to come to our God, the Well. With our God, "those who thirst will thirst no more, and those who search will find what their souls long for." May God be your Well today, and may this short video bless your Spirit.
