John 4:14, “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
📖 Devotional Message
The Reflection:
The world offers many “cisterns”—entertainment, success, relationships—that temporarily quench our thirst but leave us dry again. Christ offers a “living water” that becomes an internal source. It is not something we drink once, but a “springing up” life that satisfies us from within. When we have this inner fountain, we are no longer beggars of the world’s resources. We have a supply of peace and joy that is independent of our outward circumstances because it flows from the Spirit.
Practical Application:
When you feel a sense of dissatisfaction or “thirst” today, don’t reach for a distraction. Turn inward and “drink” of the Lord through a short prayer or a moment of praise.
LUGANDA:
Okufumiitiriza:
Ensi etuwa “ebisulo” bingi — eby’amasanyu, obuwanguzi, omukwano — ebimalawo ennyonta yaffe okumala akaseera naye ne biddamu okutuleka nga bikalu. Kristo awaayo “amazzi amalamu” agafuuka ensibuko ey’omunda. Si kintu kye tunywa omulundi gumu, wabula bulamu “obumera” obutumatiza okuva munda. Bwe tuba n’ensulo eno ey’omunda, tetukyali basabiriza by’obugagga by’ensi. Tulina ekiweebwayo eky’emirembe n’essanyu ebitakwatagana na mbeera zaffe ez’okungulu kubanga bikulukuta okuva mu Mwoyo.
Okukozesa mu nkola:
Bw’owulira obutali bumativu oba “ennyonta” leero, totuuka ku kintu ekikuwugula. Kyukira munda “nywa” Mukama ng’oyita mu kusaba okumpi oba akaseera ak’okutendereza.
