 Jesus Becomes a Fountain of Love to the Needy ㅡ 

 “When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them.  

 I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.”  (Isaiah 41:17, 18) 

  The refreshing water, welling up in a parched and barren land, causing the desert place to blossom, and flowing out to give life to the perishing, is an emblem of the divine grace which Christ alone can bestow, and which is as the living water, purifying, refreshing, and invigorating the soul. 

  He in whom Christ is abiding has within him a never-failing fountain of grace and strength. 

  Jesus cheers the life and brightens the path of all who truly seek Him . 

  His love, received into the heart, will spring up in good works unto eternal life. 

  And not only does it bless the soul in which it springs, but the living stream will flow out in words and deeds of righteousness, to refresh the thirsting around him. 

  (Patriarchs and Prophets 412.2)
