1. "And so as I begin to look at this woman at the well, again, from a different perspective of looking at her as being dehydrated physically and spiritually. And just thinking about without this water, without this word, without the presence of God operating in our lives, how long will we last spiritually? And it, and I, and I came to the resolve, not very long. Just as these physical bodies require fluid, require water to survive and thrive. Our spirits need nourishment from the Holy Spirit."

And like her, many of us may have tried to quench our spiritual thirst with the things of this world, but only to be satisfied with the things of this world."

1. "And so as my husband said this, I believe that there was a simple, three words that he said to me, but it was a divine appointment that was set in words that was set.

He knew what she longed for, what she needed, what she desired. And so this encounter was not by chance." [18:01] (36 seconds) (Download raw clip | Download cropped clip)
