Thought For Today

They (the people) went out of the city and were coming to Him (Jesus). John 4:30

Lord, John shows us Your life. You talked with the Samaritan woman at the well. You ask the woman to give You a drink and she does. Then You tell her all about her life. She knows You don’t know her and have no way of knowing all that You are saying about her. She went into town and told everyone about You and ask them to come and see You.

Thank You Lord for allowing us to bring others to meet You.

Thank You for loving us all with Your unconditional love.

Thank You for always being there for us.

Thank You Lord.

So the woman left her water jar, and went away into the city and said to the people, “Come and see a man that told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?” Luke 4:27, 28

Lord I could feel the excitement as I read. She had to tell someone about her experience. She went to the city. There she found her audience. How excited she must have been as she told them all about this person she met at the well.

Thank You Lord that we don’t have to understand everything that happens in life we just have to have the faith to believe and trust.

Thank You that as we cry out to You, You are there.

Thank You for Your unconditional love that calls us all on to become more and more like You.

Jesus said to her, (woman at the well) “I who speak to you am He.” (the Messiah) John 4:26

Lord I wonder what I would have thought had I been in her shoes. You had told her all about her life. She knew You were not some ordinary person. Now you were telling her You were the Messiah that she had been waiting for. What must have been going through her mind. Certainly she must have thought it could be true because of Your talk with her before You told her who You were.

Lord, thank You for removing all our doubts about who You truly are.

Thank You for showing us by Your Spirit who You are.

Thank You for scripture that tells us more and more as we read about You.

Oh how blessed and fortunate we are. Our eyes have been opened.
