Hello, my name is Johnny Dade and I'm a vicar in the Church of England

Now some years ago my wife and I went on a trip of a lifetime around Peru following the famous Inca Trail
0:20
Now the climax of the trip is the ascent of the famous Machu Picchu, it perched high up in the Andes
0:28
and this was the point where our guide left us to explore
0:33
Now one option was to keep climbing to a further summit beyond the ruins
0:39
and we were ambitious and thought so we decided to go for it
0:44
The ascent was steep, the climate was hot and dry and it wasn't long before we realised our dreadful mistake
0:53
We had failed to bring sufficient water. Well I learned that day how desperate the body can become for water Water is a consistent theme throughout the Bible and it often symbolic of life Jesus refers to himself as the living water He is the life gift
1:14
to all who are thirsty. And that's my question for us today. Are you thirsty? Many find that
1:23
they've drunk from the various wells that the world offers and yet somehow our thirst has not
1:30
been quenched. Our hearts ache for more. Where might we find the water that truly satisfies
1:39
Well as the Bible comes to its climactic end we read these words from Jesus himself
1:45
to the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life
1:53
Are you thirsty? Jesus says, come to me and drink
