"But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life (John 4:14 KJV)."
"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God (1 Corinthians 2:9,10 KJV)."

"'Drill, Baby, Drill'"*
There's a treasure of "living water" out there - beyond ourselves! You'll not find it in the ocean depths or the deepest well in the world. It's found only by "drilling deep" into the spritual nature and life of God Himself......and if you, as a Christian believer, are longing for a deeper walk with God and flow of the Spirit of God in your life, listen up!!
Drill deep into God's Word! It's alive, it flows with rich resources, fresh daily, for the needs of your life. Love His Word - read it, meditate on it, drink deeply - it's your life resource and spiritual strength!
Drill deep into God's Spirit! HE is alive, and His Spirit, alive and well on Planet Earth, does indwell the heart of every believer. Rely on His Spirit for guidance, for the fruit and overflowing of the Spirit, promised to every believer. He wants to empower you this day!
Drill deep into God's Mission! He lives forevermore to spread His love to all. He created all, He loves all, He died for all and He lives for all. The heart of God is a missionary heart, reaching out to every person in the world. Be a part of what God is doing in this very needy world. There's a rich blessing you can give to your world - and a rich one waiting for you alive!
His Word, His Spirit, His Mission - it's all alive and available to every believer. Get out not that earthly drill but God's heaven-sent Word - you've got some deep drilling yet to do!!
*Note/Clarification: This phrase/slogan was made popular during a political convention in 2008; see "Drill, baby, drill" - Wikipedia for further info.

(Drilling deep with a devotional twist!)
by Peggie C. Bohanon, Writer and Webmaster of Peggie's Place!
OK, upfront: this is not a political discourse for off-shore drilling - honest! It's a spiritual twist to a clever slogan I heard chanted at a political convention just last night (2008). "Drill, Baby, Drill"* - now there just HAS to be a deep-thought devotional "gushing" from that chant somewhere - and there is!!
Words from the Well! . . . Words from the Well archives
MELANIE (age 5) asked her Granny how old she was. Granny replied she
was so old she didn't remember any more. Melanie said, "If you don't
remember you must look in the back of your panties. Mine say five to
six."
I think this Mom will never forget.... "Dear Lord," the minister
began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned
face. "Without you, we are but dust." He would have continued, but at
that moment my very little daughter (who was listening!) leaned over
to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little girl voice, "Mom,
what is butt dust?
