Jesus intentionally met a woman at a well. He knew why her heart was hurting and why she felt alone - and He wanted to help her. Some of the choices she made caused her to lose friendships, but Jesus looked past her pain and into her potential. The woman was rejected by others, but not Jesus. His love, patience, and kindness brought her hope and joy. So much so that she left her water container at the well and ran into her village to tell everyone what happened! If you are hurting and feeling alone, talk to Jesus. If you notice someone who is hurting and alone, talk to them about Jesus. John 4
An encounter with Jesus changed the heart of the Samaritan woman. Everyone in her village couldn't help but notice the change, and went to the well to meet Him. The kids shared ideas on how they can make Jesus known to others. Planting, cultivating, watering, and placing seeds in the right environment to grow relates to sharing Jesus with others. We planted seeds!
