Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise - the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased. Hebrews 13:15-16

Leave it all behind...and come to The Well!



I hope you listen...really listen to the words! I absolutely love this song! This has really touched my heart...especially in the last few days with some people in our lives that you know are searching but they aren't searching in the right places! They know something is missing but they refuse to listen to what is missing. They are down and out but they won't take it to The Well. Everything in the world is wrong but if they had Jesus...their lives would be so much different. You just pray and hope and wish that they could find Christ and experience what you have experienced and have the peace that comes with knowing Jesus as your Lord and Saviour.

"I have what you need, but you keep on searching. I've done all the work, but you keep on working. When you're running on empty, and you can't find the remedy. Just come to the well".

We can search for all the rights...we can think we have it made...we can find security with wrong addictions...we can hope for a brighter tomorrow...we can search and search and search...but Christ has all we need...he has done all the work for us...all we have to do is come to him!

"You can spend your whole life, chasing what's missing. But that empty inside, it just ain't gonna listen. When nothing can satisfy, and the world leaves you high and dry. Just come to the well".

We spend our whole lives chasing things that don't matter. Thinking if we buy this or that..have more money, have a better car or have a better house we will feel satisfied. When that turns up empty and we still feel this emptiness and nothing can make it go away. When bad things happen...we lose money, we go bankrupt, our marriage fails, we lose our job and we feel we are left "high and dry"...take it to Jesus! He has the remedy! If you will only let him help you!

"And all who thirst will thirst no more. And all who search will find what their souls long for. The World will try, but it can never fill. So leave it all behind. And come to the well".

"So bring me your heart, no matter how broken. Come as you are, when your last prayer is spoken. Just rest in my arms a while. You'll feel a change, my child., When you come to the well."

No matter how broken you are...no matter how bad you think you are...it is NEVER too late! We think we have to wait until we are perfect and have everything where it should be before we can go to Jesus. Go to him NOW...let Him help you through whatever problem you have...drugs, alcohol, addictions of any sort, depression, anxiety...He can help you with it all if you will let Him. Take your problems to him and rest in his arms awhile. Feel the comfort of knowing Christ as your Saviour...He CAN save you! You WILL feel a change if you truly know him. Go to the well!

"And now that you are full of love beyond measure. Your joy's gonna flow like a stream in the desert. Soon all the world will see Living water is found in me. Cause you've come to the well. Leave it all behind and come to the well. Leave it all behind. Leave it all behind. Leave it all behind. Leave it all behind. Your pursuit of perfection (leave it all behind). Your fear of rejection (leave it all behind). Your temporary pleasures (leave it all behind). All your earthly treasures (leave it all behind). Dried up empty religion (leave it all behind). Rusty chains of addiction (leave it all behind). All the guilty that weighs you down (leave it all behind). Just leave it all behind and come to the well.

Can you leave it all behind? As my husband says...you go to the doctor when your sick...you don't wait until your well! Take it to Jesus! He can help you through any situation you may have. He has helped me through countless ones. I want you to experience Christ's unconditional love! I want you to experience satisfaction and happiness in your life that only He can bring. Will you let him? I am not perfect and I will never be this side of Heaven. I just want to share what Christ can do for you! You have to make the decision for yourself that you want to change. No one can do that for you. You have to decide that you are going to make God and church a priority in your life. No one can do that for you. I just want you to know that you can experience more joy and happiness than you have ever had if you will just come to the well! One of the things I hear most are "well, I am a good person" and there is no doubt in my mind that you are. But there will be a lot of "good" people in hell! People that think because they are good they have nothing to worry about. My friend, if you have not given your heart and life to Christ...you will not be in Heaven!
