Day 2 LONGING FOR GOD
Exodus 33:12-23 O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for

Hosea 6:1-6
A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said
to her… “Everyone who drinks of this water will be
thirsty again, but those who drink of the water that I will
give them will never be thirsty. The water that I will give
will become in them a spring of water gushing up to
eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this
water, so that I may never be thirsty or have to keep
coming here to draw water” (John 4:1-30).
