Message
Everyone has need of water to drink, bathe, wash clothes, clean the house/environment and do many other things. Water is so important that no day passes without us making use of it. It is used to quench our thirst and nothing can replace it. The Samaritan woman in our Bible passage went to the well known as, Jacob’s well, in Sychar to fetch water. She Jesus Who was on His usual preaching met assignment. The woman did not know Who Jesus was. So, when He requested water from her, she was reluctant to give Him. Jesus did not waste time, He quickly made Himself known to her as ‘the Living Water.’ He made the woman to know that He was the Messiah and the Water of Life which He gives is a well of Living Water springing into everlasting life.
Realizing Who Christ was, the woman left her water pot and ran into the city to announce that she had seen the Messiah. Her life was touched and transformed by Jesus. Have you met Jesus, the Living Water? Are you taking the Water of Life freely from Him? The Living Water cannot run dry, continue to drink from the well as you daily read and meditate on His word.
