In John 4: 6-36, we read that the lord Jesus Christ was on a Journey. While passing through Samaria, He sat on Jacob’s well to rest as His disciples went to the City to buy food. There cometh a Women of Samaria to draw Water; Jesus said to her, “Give me to drink.” The Woman said to Him, “How is it that you being a Jew, ask me for a drink, for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.” Jesus said to her: “If you knew the gift of God: and who it is that ask for a drink, you would have ask Him, and He would have given you Living Water.” “Sir you have nothing to draw with; so where would you get that living water? Are you greater than our Father Jacob, who drank himself: and his Children and Cattles also?” Jesus said to her, “Whosoever drink of this water, Shall thirst again: But whosoever drink of the water, that I shall give him; shall be in him a well of water Springing up into Everlasting Life.”
The woman said unto Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not.” When the Woman understood that Jesus was speaking about Eternal Life; She left her water pot, went into the City and called the Man of the City, saying; “Come see a Man who told me all things that I ever did, Is not this the Christ?” And many of the Samaritans came and sought for Him, that He stay with them, for three days. And many more believed on Him because of His word. They said unto the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your sayings; for we heard Him ourselves,and we know that He is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the World.” His disciples came with the food but He did not eat; He said His meat is to do the will of God. Lift up your eyes, and look: the field is ripe for harvest: And he that reaps receive wages, and gathers fruit unto Life Eternal. Jesus knew that the Samaritan woman was there. He also knows where you are, and you can be sure that He is calling you.
