Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” John 4:13-14 NIV

It is well known and understood that the human body requires water to survive. But this water must come from outside of the body and be taken in to provide that which the body requires. And after a certain amount of time the process must be repeated again for survival. The human soul must also receive water to not die. This water is the living water of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit though lives within the believer and the believer can and must go to the Holy Spirit to receive the nourishment, the drink which it requires to live. If the soul struggles due to lack of connection to the Holy Spirit, it is not any lack on the part of the Holy Spirit, but instead is the result of the lack of connectivity of the human soul to the Holy Spirit. God has no limits. Limitation lies with the believer. Maybe the issue is a doubt, or a lack of enough faith. What is missing is not of God.
