El Agua que calma tu sed

Jesús le dijo a la samaritana: «Si conocieras el don de Dios y quién es el que te pide de beber, tú le pedirías, y él te daría agua viva.» Cuál es tu sed hoy? o, de qué estas sediento? Jesús el Señor viene hoy y todos los días a ofrecerte algo que el mundo no puede dar, Agua Viva, con la que ya no se vuelve a sentir sed. ¿Estás sediento de amor, tal vez de perdón, o puede ser de algún tipo de afecto? ¿Tienes sed de ser escuchado o de ser tenido en cuenta? ¿Tienes sed de una mejor comunicación con tus hijos o tu esposo(a)? ¿Tienes sed de paz y serenidad en tu vida?.

Cualquiera que sea tu sed, hoy Jesús te promete que si le pides a Él, Él te dará el agua que satisface todas las maneras en que se puede sentir sed. Solo Él tiene el Agua de Vida eterna que es Él mismo, Su adorable persona. Él te entrega Su divinidad, Su Amor, Su Alma, Su Cuerpo, Su preciosa Sangre. Todo Él se entrega a ti para que tu existencia sea plena y feliz.

Solo el Señor puede ofrecerte, lo que el mundo, aunque publique felicidades de todo tipo, no puede concederte.

Esta Cuaresma recibe la copa de Agua Viva que Jesús te ofrece en la Eucaristía, en Su Palabra, en la Confesión, en la Adoración Eucarística y en cada gesto de conversión que tú has querido vivir para luego recibir la Gran Copa del Agua Viva de la Resurrección de Nuestro Salvador. No le des descanso al espíritu, recuerda ayunar, orar y practicar la caridad.

The Water that Quench your thirst

Jesus said to the samaritan woman, “If you knew the gift of God and who is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”

What is your thirst today? Or, what are you thirsty for? Jesus the Lord comes today and every day to offer you something that the world cannot give; Living Water, with which you no longer feel thirsty.

Are you thirsty of love, maybe of forgiveness, or can it be of some kind of affection? Are you thirsty to be heard or to be taken into account? Are you thirsty for better communication with your children or your spouse? Are you thirsty for peace and serenity in your life?

Whatever your thirst is, today Jesus promises you that if you ask Him, He will give you the water that satisfies every thirst that you may have. Only He has the Water of eternal Life that is Himself, His adorable person. He gives you His divinity, His Love, His Soul, His Body, His precious Blood. Everything is given to you so that your existence is full and happy. Only the Lord can offer you, what the world cannot grant you.

This Lent accept the cup of Living Water that Jesus offers you in the Eucharist, in His Word, in Confession, in Eucharistic Adoration and in every gesture of conversion that you have wanted to live and then receive the Great Cup of Living Water of the Resurrection of Our Savior. Do not give rest to the spirit. Remember to fast, pray and practice charity.
