'I wish I was dead already' said Lana Del Rey at 27. She thought that dying young was 'glamorous' and wanted to be a part of 'The 27 club'.
But merely joining that club doesn’t fix zip or fill the void inside. Money, fame..with like a millions of “followers” etc., or having an ivy league education, or that girlfriend or boyfriend, or an apparent perfect marriage with cute little kids..none of it fills the inner void inside.
What have you been striving for thinking it’ll really fill up and satisfy you?
"I really feel like I need six months to live again, time to be like, normal or abnormal. I don't have anyone writing anything for me. It's such an internal well and if it's not full, it's just not full." —Lana Del Rey
Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour. A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink. " For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, "How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
Jesus said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water. " The woman said to Him, "Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water? Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?" Jesus answered and said to her, "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. " The woman said to Him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw." John 4:10-15
She had five husbands but none of them really did it for her -- romance can be nice in the right context, but having that minus a relationship with God through Christ is lacking too.
The woman said to Jesus, "I know that Messiah is coming" (who is called Christ). "When He comes, He will tell us all things. " Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am He."
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” John 1:12-13
“Jesus answered and said to him, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.’” John 3:3
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” John 3:16-17
"I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me though he die yet he shall live." John 11:25
