Poetry
Lord, you are the water of life
but you poured yourself out for me.
You drank of the cup which the Father gave you.
But in the end your lips were parched was thirst.
Perhaps you were thirsty because you poured out
all you had when you gave your life for me.
Maybe you were thirsty because at that moment you were separated from the Father, who is the source of all life... and it left you dry.
No doubt your physical thirst was caused by loss of blood and dehydration. But you were also spiritually dry -- you emptied yourself.
You give me living water and I will never thirst again. My soul's thirst can be quenched because you were thirsty. And Lord, is you who makes the bitter waters sweet.
