This song hit me like a brick this morning. It felt so good. When I need energy to get through my day, when I don’t feel like fetching one more drink, making one more meal, rushing to a bathroom one more time with a toddler, when I wish I could take a shower in silence, by my self, when I just want to think about myself only and not everyone around me, when the projects and chores never end, when I wish I could escape my “job” and go home when my job is at home 24/7, when I need an encouraging word, a compliment, attention, a care taker when I’m sick, a friend, an adult conversation no matter how mundane, recognition, confirmation, a good night’s sleep, rest, when I lack courage, confidence, when I feel afraid, alone, and often times invisible… He sees me. More importantly, he is just waiting for me to ask Him.
Matthew 7: 7-8 , 7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
We waste so much time waiting for the things we need to come by way of either ourselves, or someone other than Him. What we get is never as good as getting it from where our source is meant to be. The never ending well, the Living Water.
