Come all who are thirsty
Come all who are weary
Come single mom
Come pregnant teenager
Lay your burdens down
And I will give you rest
My yoke is light
Just as the woman at the well came to fetch water
She was not only physically thirsty but spiritually thirsty
She was in search of something meaningful
She found her savior at the well
He offered her what she really needed
Living water
Come and drink from the well
Not dug by human hands
But drink from springs of living water
Rest
And drink from fountains of life
Your savior and redeemer
Will replenish and refresh you
You will receive strength and grace
To do the right thing
To make the right decision
Knowing that you have
The Lord of host on your side
Even as the battle rages on
He will never leave you
Come and receive life
Choose life
Come oh weary mom to be
Come and drink of the living water
John 4:28-29 (ESV)
So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?”
New chapter
Life
A future
A destiny
Hope crushed
Cries of help
Deserted
Killed
Heartbreaking
Stop!
There is another way
A helping hand
Stretched out
Even in your despair
Stop!
God provides
Ask for help
Someone has been given
The answers that you are looking for
Listen
There is another way
This is a fight for life
A future
A destiny
A hope
