I. Thirsting in Fulfillment of Scripture (verse 28-29)
II. Thirsting as a Curse (verses 28-30)
“Jesus was proved to be really man, because he suffered the pains which belong to manhood. Angels cannot suffer thirst. A phantom, as some have called him, could not suffer in this fashion: but Jesus really suffered, not only the more refined pains of delicate and sensitive minds, but the rougher and commoner pangs of flesh and blood.” ~ Charles Spurgeon
“Friends though fallen humanity is burning up with thirst. Though we look for broken cisterns that can hold no water. Jesus offers us rivers of living water. He says in John 6:35 - “whoever believes in me shall never thirst.” Will you seek His refreshing stream? Because He thirsted for us, He is the only one who can satisfy your thirst.” ~ Anonymous

“I lay down My life that I may take it again. “No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again.” ~ John 10:17-18
