A natural spring is found where water pressure causes a natural flow of groundwater onto the earth's surface. The water that Jesus speaks of comes to us by way of His Spirit at work through our Lord’s words, and gives eternal life. The spiritual “rivers of living water” (John 7:38) from God flow down to us from the side of Jesus, who is at the right hand of God, and they spring up in the church. 

For where the Spirit is, there is Christ, and there is the church. In the bubbling waters of the font of Holy Baptism, the Spirit opened heaven to you and God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit made His home with you. It is why believers are channels of this living water to others. For Jesus, speaking of the Spirit said, “Whoever believes in me, as the Scriptures has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’”
