Religion a Spring
John 4:11-12
The woman said to him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where then have you that living water?…


When you were children, as you went along through the park, has your eye been attracted by a tiny jet of water springing up among the green grass? You said, "It is a spring!" And then, because you had nothing to do in those happy days, you said, "I will cover it up, and keep the spring down." You have gathered leaves and earth and stones, and built a compact house, and said, "No more water from that poor spring will ever get out of that prison." By and by the earth loosened and fell and crumbled away before the irresistible stream of gentle water.

(J. Watson, M. A.)
