John 7:38 (NLT) says, “Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.” Rivers of living water will flow from God’s heart. The New Living Translation Bible uses the word heart. The King James Bible states it this way: “Out of His belly will flow rivers of living water.” The belly is the deepest place inside you—the place where you get anxious or afraid. Where you feel hollow or empty when you’re disappointed. When worry or fear or anxiety hit us we describe it as going all the way to our gut. We talk of having a pit in our stomach. It is here, in the deepest part of us, Jesus says He will produce vitality. If we come to Him and drink, rivers of living water will flow from our inner most self.
