Scripture: John 4: 7, 9
But on the way he had to go through the country of Samaria.(4) When a Samaritan woman came to the well to get some water, Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.”(7)
Scripture Commentary: Jesus Christ is asking you for water.
What are you going to do? Give Him water or walk away? Every day Jesus Christ is asking for and giving living water to those who are asking.
How do you ask for Christ’s living water?
You ask through prayer and by talking to Him. The living Word is Jesus Christ; the written Word is The Bible. The woman at the well believed that if she received the water Jesus offered, she would have not have to return to the well each day.
She was interested in His message because she thought it would make her life easier. We all have to go to the well Jesus is talking about every day to fill our spirit. Jesus didn’t come to take away challenges but to change and empower us to deal with our problems from God’s perspective.
The woman didn’t immediately understand what Jesus was talking about. He gave her time to ask questions. Everyone is not ready to receive the Word or to understand it. Remember, God is patient with you.
