The Water That Becomes a Well

The text for today is found in the Gospel of John chapter 4. It's a very famous, very popular chapter, the woman at the well. But our angle on what we are going through the Gospel of John, is pursuing a life led by the Holy Spirit. If Jesus leaned on the Holy Spirit and was led by Him in the ministry—what to do, who to talk to, what to do next, where to go next, and how God the Father is working—and so how much more do we need it, in our simple lives, in our careers, in our relationships, in our families, in our agendas. 

The Water That Becomes a Well. I really like this one statement: Jesus said, If only you knew whom you were speaking to. We cannot expect to live a life in the purpose and power of the Gospel while we're not totally tuned to the Holy Spirit and to His leading. We cannot expect to do that. The Christ-centered life, the Christian life, the Christ-powered life is led when the Spirit of God works through you, loves through you, serves through you. Are you tired? Are you frustrated trying to work your faith out? Are you frustrated with the way things are turning out, the way prayer doesn't work? Are you frustrated with that or have you had wrestling matches with God? You cannot do it. The Holy Spirit has to be the one driving it. It should be easy. It should come naturally, or if I may add, supernaturally. It should flow. If we are pushing it out, if we are trying, if we are working on it, something is not right. Something is amiss. We cannot expect to live a life of purpose and power in the Gospel if we are not tuned to the Holy Spirit. So also, we cannot expect to be tuned to the Holy Spirit if we are not every day in the Word, in prayer, and fasting. These are the basic disciplines that bring us to a place where God is free to work in our lives. So, we are going to look at that today, specific to John, chapter 4.

Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John… (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples), he left Judea and departed again for Galilee. And he had to pass through Samaria. So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob's well was there; so, Jesus, wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour (noon). A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” (For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.) The Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw water with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.” Jesus said to her, 

“Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I will not be thirsty or have to come here to draw water.” Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.” The woman answered him, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right in saying, ‘I have no husband’; for you have had five husbands, and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true.” The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.” Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the father. You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. But the hour (time) is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. (What is worship… finding your total satisfaction in God.) God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” 

The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.” Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.” Just then, his disciples came back. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but no one said, “What do you seek?” or, “Why are you talking with her?” 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?” They went out of the town and were coming to him. Meanwhile the disciples were urging him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.” But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.” So the disciples said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?” Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work. Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes and see that the fields are white for harvest. Already the one who reaps is receiving wages and gathering fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. For here the saying holds true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.” Many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, “He told me all that I ever did.” So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days.  And many more believed because of his word. They said to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world.”

Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples, more disciples than John, when they heard that the Pharisees saw the competition, they saw a little bit of a tussle there, Jesus left Judea and He departed again back to Galilee. But when going back to Galilee, the Bible says in verse 4, He had to pass through Samaria. He had to go through Vasant Kunj. He had to go through Connaught Place. He had to go by that way. Now, that could mean two things. There's no other route. It could also mean that He wanted to go by that way because sometimes our interruptions are God's appointments. God wants us to meet. God wants us to deal with somebody. For us, when we go through out day and find interruptions or people coming in our way or getting in the way, or traffic, or something, we begin thinking, huh, will this day never get better? Why can't everything just go smooth? And what you mean by that, really, is why can't everybody get out of my way? But what if the Holy Spirit was purposely bringing things, people, situations, into your life so that you will meet them whom you would not otherwise meet… are you prepared for those interruptions? Are you prepared for the Holy Spirit's leading? For the most part, the Holy Spirit's leading is quite irritating because it doesn't gel with our day's agenda. It doesn't gel well with how we want things to go. For the most part, we don't know how He is leading. So if your mindset is not fixed on that, you will see these interruptions as very, very irritating. 

Verse 4- So, he came to a town of Samaria called Sicar, near the field that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. And Jacob's well was there, because Jacob had dug a well for the generations after him. So Jesus is weary from his Rajdhani journey. He gets off onto the station there, and at that well, he rests. There's nobody there. The times is 12 noon, in the middle of the day. Nobody comes to draw water in the middle of the day. They come in the morning. They come in the evening. Nobody comes during the day. And Jesus is just sitting by the well, and he's resting. The disciples have gone over into town to McDonald's to pick up some fast food.

So now I would request you to imagine with me. Jesus is just resting. Are you there? At the well? Can you see Jesus? Do you feel the heat? Do you feel the irritation? It's in the middle of the journey. This is not the time to love someone. This is not the time to care and minister to someone's needs. Meet me on Sunday morning when I'm fresh, and I've had a shower, and everything's fine, and the air conditioner has workedand everything is okay. Meet me at my convenience, et cetera.

So then a woman from Samaria came to draw water. Ooh. All of a sudden, in the middle of the day, at noon, one woman comes all alone. Now, women don't go all alone. They always go in groups. They're always carrying lots of pots and they're carrying water. They come together, they go together, they chat... That's how it works. But this woman is coming all alone. So the scene is not getting any better. Jesus is all alone! Rabbi! This woman from Samaria is all alone, and she's headed to the same well where Jesus is all alone! Nothing about this seems healthy. Nothing about this seems good. 

A woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her give me a drink, for his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. And the Samaritan woman said to him, how is it that you, a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a woman of Samaria? Here's where you want to stop and ask, Lord, what was different about the way Jesus served? Jesus ministered. It says in parentheses, (for Jews had no dealings with Samaritans). Why? Because Samaritans were half-Jews. They were hybrid. They were mixed race. And Jesus answered and said, if you knew the gift of God, and who it is was saying to you, give me a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water. And the woman said to him, sir, you have nothing to draw water with. This well is pretty deep. Where do you get this living water from? She assumed that he gets the living water from the same place she gets hers from. We want the comfort and the familiarity of the source to remain the same, but we want transformation and miracles and changes… 

So she asks, are you greater than our father Jacob? He dug the well. What did you do? He gave us this well and he drank from it himself and his boys and their cattle. Jesus said to her, everyone who drinks of this water, and he pointed into the well, will come back for it again and again and again. Why? Because they're going to get thirsty and they're going to come back for it. But whoever drinks of the water that I give will never be thirsty again. That's weird because that way I'm only drinking that water once. Now, what kind of water could that be where I'm only drinking it once? Remember, I'm a very simple guy. So let's go really simple. We'll just be logical, very simple, step by step. So here's water from a well. And you take the water from the well and you go, and it's not living water. So you get thirsty again and you come back to the well. The well is always there and the well always has water. So you keep coming back to the well to draw water. Religion. You keep coming back to the well to draw water, and it gets you through a day. It gets you through half a day, but you have to come back for more because it only satisfies for a little while. But Jesus says what I'm going to give you is water that becomes a well. 

And Jesus said, everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again. But whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become, when he has drunk it, will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life. So you come to a well again and again to get water repeatedly. But when I give you water, that water becomes a well, and you don't have to ever come to draw more. 

So we're talking about satisfaction here. Religion will satisfy you for a moment. It will get you through a day. It is ceremonious. It is pious. It is ritualistic. But what I'm going to give to you is something in the inner man. It is spiritual. It is transformational. It is permanent. And you will never need to go back for anything else again.  So she says- Sir, ha, this sounds good! Give me this water because I don't want to keep coming back to this water to drink. Right there, a conversion is happening. No, no, she's not that dumb that she thinks she's not going to ever need water from the well again. We know that by tomorrow breakfast, she's going to want that water, but she recognizes that there's something else happening here and she wants that change. So Jesus says to her, you want to go from being unsatisfied to being satisfied. Tell me about your husband. Go call your husband.

So as the Holy Spirit leads you into conversations, whether you're sitting in a restaurant or you're waiting in the lift or you're waiting or you're on the metro or you're just waiting in the corridor or you have these moments where you're just passing and you're just in the company of somebody for a moment, the Holy Spirit will tell you. The Holy Spirit will lead you. The Holy Spirit will give you what you need to say in that moment. You don't walk around with all the wisdom beforehand. In the moment, at that given time, as God leads you to the place, to the opportunity and to the person, God opens your mouth to be able to say just the right thing. And then people turn to you and say, that meeting I had with you, it was life changing. And you have no idea why or what you said. It's best that you don't know how it happened. When the Holy Spirit leads you and you are available, you are in tune already and you've been walking in the Spirit, the Holy Spirit will open your mouth and give you the words to say. He'll lead you in the direction of where the hunger is, where the need is, where the problem is. And without going through the whole psychology of it and having long sessions, tell me about your mother, taking notes and notes and notes. I don't have any problem with psychologists, but I'm just saying generally they have to go through the whole background, but God knows in a moment. 

Call your husband. And he knew that that is a satisfaction problem right there. Why? Because she couldn't stick with one for whatever and however her life went about, she landed up with five guys. And even the guy who is with her right now is not technically her husband. So there is a satisfaction problem. This woman, it's not every woman, this woman is going to the wrong well for her satisfaction. And Jesus nails it right there. Often people and Pastors teach this passage saying, see Jesus knows your sins. It's got nothing to do with sins. If Jesus started listing your sins, you wouldn't make it till tomorrow morning. Jesus never does that. Why does he not do that? Because he plans to take it to the cross. So he's not going to judge you. He says to the woman caught in adultery, he says, neither do I judge you, go and sin no more. Why could he say that? Because he was going to take all her sin and he was going to nail it to the cross with himself. So this whole thing about Jesus knew her sin and exposed her so that she may… please. Jesus knew that the purpose and the reason behind her sinful lifestyle was a hunger for God that was not met.

What is sin? Sin is essentially us going to something else other than God to meet the needs of our life. When we are not satisfied in him, we find that satisfaction in other places and that is sin. I need to be loved by God, but I go find love somewhere else. I need to be valued by God, but I go find that value somewhere else. I need to be celebrated by God, affirmed by God, but I go find that affirmation, that value somewhere else. Why is it sinful? Because where it should be coming from, that source has been cut off, and you want it from another source. Sin is not being satisfied in God. If sin is not being satisfied with God, if we're working through definitions, what is worship? Worship is a lifestyle of finding our satisfaction in God. Lord, I'm lonely. I'm coming to you. Lord, I'm hungry. I'm coming to you. Lord, people are letting me down. I'm coming to you. Lord, I don't know where to go. I'm afraid about the future. I'm coming to you. This morning, I looked in the mirror, Lord, I feel like I'm growing old, I don't know where all these aches and pains are coming from. Lord, I'm coming to you. For everything, your satisfaction is anchored in God. And there you find a water that becomes a well. 

And the woman said to him, sir, I perceive that you are a prophet. Quick change of topic. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but (the Jews), you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship. Jesus said, both are wrong. Everything's going to change. As of now, worship is going to go from spiritual piety and religious ritual to finding a satisfaction in a living relationship with God. When you drink the living water, what's going to happen? You're going to get life. When you get life, what's going to happen? You're going to be in fellowship with the living God. When you get in fellowship with the living God, what's going to happen? You're going to be satisfied. When you are satisfied in the right source, what is that called? Worship. Jesus said to her, woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. The worship that you do, you do not know. We worship what we know for salvation is from the Jews. But the hour, that's the time, is coming and is now here. I'm bringing that change. I'm going to do it. The time is now here when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth.

Everybody focuses on in spirit and in truth. Today I want to focus on the first phrase. When true worshipers come, they will worship the Father. Why? Because it is the Father from whom all good things come. Remember when the disciples ask Jesus to teach them to pray? Our Father who is in Heaven. Jesus changes everything. Religion is going to the same well over and over again, coming back hungry for more. But Jesus puts the water inside you that becomes a well. And he was speaking about the Holy Spirit. And when he puts that living water, which is the Holy Spirit, you will never be thirsty again because the Holy Spirit will lead you to a life of worship to find everything you need in God. And you will live a full, a satisfied, and a holy life. And that is the kind of worship the Father is seeking. When the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. He wants people who will find their hunger met in Christ, their thirst met in Christ, their life plan met in Christ, their ministry in Christ, the goal of their life in Christ, their marriage and their brokenness find the solutions in Christ. He wants that kind of worship. 

By the way, just a little bookmark here. Worship is not the singing. Worship is not Sunday morning. Worship is not the gathering. Worship is when you are overflowing with joy on Sunday morning because God has taken care of all your needs. When God has healed you, when God has spoken to you, when God has lifted you, when God has embraced you, Psalm 91, Psalm 94, Psalm 15, Psalm 23, when God has been God to you in that moment, worship has happened. That is worship. What we do here on Sunday morning is called praise.

God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. The woman said to him, I know that the Messiah is coming and he is called the Christ and he will come and he will tell us all things. Jesus looks at her and says … I'm the guy. This is it. If I was that woman, I would be like, seriously, hang on, hold the phone. Are you saying that at 12 o'clock in the afternoon, you got rid of all the boys, and in this whole world of I don't know how many thousands of people were there at that time, you came to meet me here at this well so that I can stop coming to the well and I can find a well within me? Are you telling me that this moment of transformation in my life was so intentional by you? And Jesus says, yeah, I have to go through Samaria!

So I asked myself and I ask you to ask yourself, is your life that intentional? The ministry is picked by the Holy Spirit. The people are picked by the Holy Spirit. Jesus didn't call that woman to come meet him at the well. That happened. But he was there at the right time in tune with the Holy Spirit. And you and I need to be the same. Every moment of our lives, we need to be prepared because God wants to use us. 

At that time, when he said, I am the Messiah, in that incredible moment, the disciples came back. And as they came back, they saw Jesus talking to a Samaritan woman. Nothing sat right with these poor fellows. Thomas must have had a fit. Just then, verse 27, his disciples came back and they marvelled that he was talking to a woman, but no one said, what do you seek and why are you talking with her? So the woman left the jar, left everything, and she ran towards the city. So the disciples are coming from there. She runs at the same time as soon as they're coming and she's gone off into the city. Jesus is just standing there and an incredible moment has just happened where the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit has done, changed a life again there at Jacob's well. Little did Jacob know what was going to happen there. And then this woman goes back to the city and she says, come see a man who told me all that I've ever done. Maybe this is the guy. Maybe this is the Christ, the Messiah. And they went out of the town and they were all coming to him, not to the well, but to him. That's the change Jesus brings in your life. That's the change this woman brought because she was hungry for that same water. And she said, no, it's not good enough that I have it. I'm going to go tell everybody else to come. And they also came and they started running. So you've got the disciples are coming. You've got Jesus standing near the well. You've got this woman going over and bringing out the people from the city. And you've got this incredible scene happening there. I want you to use your sanctified imagination and land there, watch there. 

Meanwhile, the disciples were urging him saying, Lord, we brought food. This burger is getting cold, Rabbi, eat. Verse 32, but he said to them, I have food to eat that you do not know about. So the disciples said to one another, did somebody else bring him food? Why did we go all the way up to get the food? Did somebody else bring him food? No. What satisfied Jesus wasn't food for the stomach or water for the thirst, but to do the will of God. When believers live and they find their satisfaction and their joy in doing the will of God, living for him and letting the Spirit move through them and minister to them, that is when a believer is at his peak. That is when he is worshiping. That is when he is at his max. Most believers do not know the joy of the Lord. Most believers are looking for God to leave everything and help me in my small, insignificant career of a life, my small problems, my small needs. God will supply all my needs. Oh, praise Jesus, praise Jesus. But what does he want me to do, how does he want to use me, what conversations does he want me to have, I have no idea... And then you wonder where the power is missing. Why do I not feel close to God? Why? Because you are useless. You are unavailable. You are out of tune. You're not an instrument God wants to pick up and play. You're not clean, an instrument God wants to pick up and use. You are too busy in a life that's incompatible with the Gospel. 

Meanwhile, the disciples were urging him, eat Rabbi. I don't need to eat. I'm doing the thing that feeds my soul right here. Forget the food, man. And he says, my food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work. That drove Jesus. And a believer whose life is driven by the Holy Spirit will get up in the morning and say, Lord, how are you going to use me? Lord, thank you for using me. God move through me. And you will have the Jesus who touched me moments. I felt the Spirit of God move through me. Who touched me? You will have those moments as you make yourself more and more available to God to use you. That is the power of a human who is given over to the Spirit of God to be used.

So the scene is happening. It's building up. The people are coming out of that city. Suddenly one woman goes in and comes out with all these men and women, and they're walking towards Jesus. This well is there. Jesus is standing by the well. Twelve very confused disciples are trying to make him eat. This whole scenario is happening, and Jesus says to them this, verse 35. He says, my food is to do the will of him who sent me. He says that. Then he says, verse 35, do you not say there are yet four months, then comes the harvest? Can’t you tell when the harvest is coming? Can't you tell when God is about to do something? Can't you tell that God wants to move in your life? Don't you get ready for that and get excited about that? Isn't that what you do? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes. And as soon as he said that, all these guys, they took their attention off the burgers and the chips and fries and all the eating and the paper plates, and then they looked up and all of them raised their eyes toward the door, toward the gate of the city. And out of the gate of the city were coming hundreds of these men and women. And Jesus says, look, the harvest is plentiful. They want me. You are the one who's out of tune. They want me. One conversation, and a life became a ministry. They want me. There are people in your office. They want me. There are people who live on your street. They want me. But you don't know what's going on. Because even when it comes to the harvest, four months and there will be the harvest. But when it comes to the things of God, you guys have been with me for three years and you don't understand how to read the times.

Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes and see the fields are white for harvest. Already the one who reaps is receiving wages, gathering fruit for eternal life so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together. The harvest time is coming. For here the saying holds true. One sows and another reaps. I sent you to reap that which you did not labor for. You did not work for it, but you're going to be picking up the fruit. You're going to be in your office, in your colony, in your family. Lives that are going to be changed because somebody else worked on it. Somebody else sowed the seed. God is going to do powerful things, and you're going to rejoice along with the people who worked before and you will be part of the harvest. I sent you to reap that on which you did not labor. 

Many Samaritans from the town believed in him because of the woman's testimony. He told me all that I ever did, she said that. So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, stick around two more days. And he stayed there two more days and many more believed because of his word. And they said to the woman, it is no longer because you told us that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and we now know for ourselves that he is indeed the Savior of the world. 

The Holy Spirit leads us into moments and opportunities for the Gospel. You think it's an interruption, a change of plan and it's not what you wanted, but the Holy Spirit leads you into moments and opportunities for the Gospel. And we need to be making the most of ministry opportunities. Later we realise, I had a wonderful opportunity, I should have said something. In that moment, I was so tired. I was so distracted. I had to get home quickly. My spouse was texting me. I had to get home quickly. I lost the moment. How many times has that happened to us? The character, the opportunity, selflessness and the reliance of the Spirit all converge to make that momentary impact. And you know you were called to such a time as this. And your whole day goes well because God used you. God touched a life through you. The Holy Spirit leads us into such moments. Know this, believe this, live by it. 

Jesus was ministry-minded. He had heaven's agenda on his mind. He was tired, sure. He was exhausted. He had been walking. He had been journeying, sure. But he was always ready to change a life because he was in tune.Brothers and sisters, your life is more than this. Your life is more than your career, your marriage, your relationships, your savings, your accomplishments. Your life is more than this. You have to put your calling above your career. You need to operate out of your calling, not out of your career. You need to put your ministry above your job. You are God's ambassador. You are the Spirit-filled child of God, a servant of God. And you are that by calling. You didn't earn it. You didn't want it. You didn't even ask for it. But God Almighty has called your name and wants to use you. No discrimination. You could be Samaritan. You could be Indian or from any land. Anyone and everyone, God wants to reach them through you. 

But where does it begin? Your ministry is going to flow out of your worship. What is worship? Being satisfied in God. From going to the well to having a well inside you. If you live an unsatisfied life, if you have grumbling and complaints all day, all week, you are someone who is yet to understand what the Holy Spirit can do in your life. You are yet to see what Christ can give to you. When you are satisfied in Him and you are overflowing with everything that He has met in your life, every need He has met in life, you are able to then find your ministry. You give me water, Jesus said. Your water comes from the well. I give you water. My water becomes a well. The defining factor is your satisfaction. You have five husbands.You have water that doesn't satisfy. You have misguided theological assumptions. You have to want and receive this water and then you will get it. 

So this woman is probably saying, okay, we've established that I need you. We've established that you can satisfy me. We've sorted that out. You're the Messiah. Great. Yippee. But if you're the giver of life, why are you asking me for water? Have you thought about that before? Do you, Jesus, still need physical water? Should I still take that water out? Because you started by saying, give me a drink. And the answer to that is, yes. Jesus does need that water. That physical water, He does need it. Why? Because while He is the head of the Church, while He is the giver of life, His body, the Church, they have needs. So you give them water, and I will give you living water. You get involved in ministry, and I will satisfy you in worship. Do you still need that water? The woman asked Jesus. He said, yes. Go find a church, find a ministry and serve. Serve me with what you've got, and I will serve you with what I have. I can do more with your life than you can do with your life. And out of the satisfaction of your worship will flow your ministry.

What is the result? The result was impact that you didn't ask for, you didn't work for, you didn't plan. A city came to meet Him. I sent you to reap that which for you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor. Many more believed because of His word and they said to the woman, it's no longer because you told us. We have seen enough and now we believe that He is indeed the Savior of the world. Yep, that's the worship as the Father wants and He gives Jesus, and Jesus gives us the Holy Spirit. We are satisfied in the Spirit of God and we become ministers of the Gospel. Fullness and abundance, a wholeness, a fountain of life that flows from within us to a needy, needy world around us.

Are you useful to the Spirit of God in what He's doing? Are you available? Are you tuned? What needs to change? What needs to get right? What needs to be adjusted for your life to be Gospel-centric? Make up your mind, make the change and watch God satisfy you with such joy that you will wake up every morning and say, Lord use me, use me.
