Peace is not just a fleeting feeling: For all of us called to abundant life in Christ, it is a way of living that defies discouragement in even impossible circumstances. Jesus invites us to choose the good portion and to sit at his feet in peace.
When we think of the story of the woman at the well, we can get hung up on the fact that she has had five husbands and the man she is living with now is not her husband, but the point of the story is that only the living water from Jesus can quench our desire for love in the deepest places. We can search for love on earth, but only the eternal satifies.
The world will tell us to chase love, but we can lose ourselves searching for it. The real transformation comes when we chase God and find the living water Jesus speaks about in John chapter 4.
Our guest blogger, Marina, shares how waiting in our seasons of singleness is not a static season, but one of blessing and action.
