Today, I was reminded of the great love of Father and the divine appointments he has in our lives. I was reminded of how he chose you.. that one person reading my blog, out of everyone in the world to be where you are and do what you are doing when you are doing it. That everything he does has a HUGE purpose, and he is this glorious, mighty genius, we get to call Father.
There is a story, that I know you know well of the woman at the well. Father placed her at the well, Jesus was there - perfect timing, God's timing. She's the perfect representation of what it is to be human and trusting in self and worldly things and passions.
After questioning Jesus' intentions, Jesus says to her "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, "give me a drink," you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."
This woman looks, I would like to think, in the eyes of Jesus - but that's not recorded, and says to Jesus, Sir, you have nothing to draw water with and the well is deep...."
I'm not entirely sure where this post going... other than the beautiful picture of how human this woman of samaria is in painting a picture of our own souls. How many times do we look at Jesus and tell him that our problems are too deep, he has nothing to draw this water with. His grace ISN'T enough.
but it is. If we drink the water he offers, we will never thirst again... <3
