The woman said to him, ‘I know that Messiah is coming….’ Jesus said to her, ‘I who speak to you am he.’ John 4:25-26
Author God,
What a profound true story you have given us to demonstrate
the only real hope for those of us who feel stuck—
whether stuck in sin, stuck in bad habits, or just stuck in life.
May we read this story and see
how Jesus came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10),
how his revelation that he is the Messiah,
the Christ, the King of our lives,
changes everything when we believe it.
The Samaritan woman,
who had been stuck for a long time,
dropped her water jar
and ran back to the very people
she had just avoided
to invite them to meet the Messiah (John 4:28-30).
May we truly seek out the Jesus who seeks us out.
May we find ourselves found in him.
And may we become true worshipers—
those who worship in spirit and in truth (4:23).
Read John 4:1-42.
