John 4: 1-26
This is the story of Jesus and the samaritan woman by the well of Jacob. At first glance as i was reading through this story, i was just so focused on the fact that the woman like every other normal functioning person immediately asked Jesus to give her the "water" that she might never be thirsty again. I recognised that isn't this how it is with me as well? All too often all i ask from my Heavenly Father is that He just shows up in my times of need and in this case, provide me with the living water.
But praise God, for He revealed in my spirit that it isn't simply the case. What Jesus promised to the Samaritan woman was far more precious and important than water, our most basic and primal needs. He promised us salvation, in the hope of Jesus. The living water Jesus spoke of is freely given, demanding nothing back. What a beautiful sacrifice indeed. As i pondered and am typing this, i really yearn to grow so intimate with God. I know that this shouldn't just be for a particular season of my life, but right now, i really could understand the importance and significance of holding on to Jesus. I really do pray that by His grace and mercy, i would be able to do well for my modules and simply just give me abounding strength to carry on even with tomorrow's work.
