That women

Today my heart was broken. 
Today my life was changed. 
Today my tears were shed. 
I close my eyes and i see her. 
I see her with her clay pot walking on the hot sand going to get water. 
I see her ashamed and broken, but good at playing her part. 
She gets to the side of the well and begins to draw water. 
I see Him walk up behind her and i see His heart break for her. I see his future death and how it was for her. 
I see her and i see me. 
John 4 : 8-15

A woman, a Samaritan, came to draw water. Jesus said, "Would you give me a drink of water?"

 ⁹The Samaritan woman, taken aback, asked, "How come you, a Jew, are asking me, a Samaritan woman, for a drink?" (Jews in those days wouldn't be caught dead talking to Samaritans.)

 ¹⁰Jesus answered, "If you knew the generosity of God and who I am, you would be asking me for a drink, and I would give you fresh, living water."

 ^11-12The woman said, "Sir, you don't even have a bucket to draw with, and this well is deep. So how are you going to get this 'living water'? Are you a better man than our ancestor Jacob, who dug this well and drank from it, he and his sons and livestock, and passed it down to us?"

 ^13-14Jesus said, "Everyone who drinks this water will get thirsty again and again. Anyone who drinks the water I give will never thirst—not ever. The water I give will be an artesian spring within, gushing fountains of endless life."

 ¹⁵The woman said, "Sir, give me this water so I won't ever get thirsty, won't ever have to come back to this well again!"

I see confusion on her face, how could water give her endless life? and at that, why would a Jew be reaching out to a Samaritan? Why, why, why?

There is no other answer than the the cliche answer we've all known since kindergarten "Jesus"


Now, no i am not a Samaritan and no i don't have to go to a well but what i do have in common with her is my sin. 
 I in no way deserve to be loved. I am horrible; just as soon as i am done struggling with a sin and the spirit helps me leave it behind, BOOM another hindrance in my life. 
It happens everyday. 
But what i dont want you to miss from this story is who the women at the well was. 
She was not just a women. She was entangled in webs of lies and unfaithful ways.
She is me. 
And what did Christ do?
He came to her. 
He came to me. 
He showed her His love just as He showed me His love. 


"Love came down and rescued me, love came down and set me free; i am Yours, i am forever Yours."


This is just food for thought. 
Christ really broke me today. 
Christ blinded me with His love and i just hope y'all get the same out of this i did. 
God is good.
