There was this little seed
And in a garden it was sowed
It had the warmth of the sun
But it needed water to grow.
Now this very seed was watered
By the raindrops that fell from the sky
It was even given water
By many people who walked by.
Even though it was given plenty of water
This kind of water was never enough
For you see this seed's heart was dry
And it was also very tough.
Now one day a stranger walked by
And poured a different kind of water on top
This seed was so excited
That it absorbed every last drop.
For the water this stranger gave
Was not of an ordinary kind
It didn't cost the seed a thing
Not even one thin dime.
This water was living water
That Christ gave to the women at the well
This water was the gift of eternal life
And this water is free and not for sale.
This poem is an open invitation
A gift from God to you from me
You are a seed that needs this living water
And you can have life with Christ in eternity.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his
Only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
In him should not perish, but have everlasting
Life."
John 3:16WILL YOU RECEIVE HIM TODAY?
