the truth within creation (john 4)

Jesus asks for a drink, then speaks of a deeper thirst and living water. The disciples come back and talk about food - and Jesus speaks of better food: doing the will of God.


Food and drink: just handy illustrations? Or maybe the whole created order points us, inexorably, to the Creator and to our need of him, as the one from whom every good and perfect gift comes down.
