A woman of Samaria
came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” John 4:7
Today’s scripture
comes from the story of Jesus Christ who spoke to the woman at the well, found
in John 4:4-26. Jesus came to the well
and asked the Samaritan woman for a drink, as He had nothing to draw water from
the well. During their interaction, Jesus gave specific details about this
woman’s life and how misguided her life had been. He offered her living water,
eternal water of salvation that would change her life for all eternity.
If your community is
like mine, there are many homeless people looking for help, a drink of water, a
serving of food, a few dollars to get them by. But what they really need is a
living hope and you, my friend, have the resources to provide that to them. When
you share your resources, out of the love of Christ, you provide them with
something greater. You show them unconditional love that was shown you by God’s
Son; grace, mercy, and love when you were unlovable.
And the King will
answer and say to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one
of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.” Matthew 25:40
Opportunities abound
to give hope to those around you, by sharing the love and resources God has
bless you with in your life. Let your heart give generously to those in need,
for when you do, you are serving a cup of water to your Lord and Savior! God
bless!
