48 “Unless you people see signs and wonders,” Jesus told him, “you will never believe.” – John 4:48 this really grabbed me and made me think how many times we ask God for signs. Do we sometimes miss our blessing because we are not seeing it because we do not notice the small blessings but instead look for larger signs and wonders?
The culture was that Samaritans and Jews don’t associate but in His kind and gracious nature, Jesus revealed His identity to the Samaritan woman at the well and in that moment encouraged her that the time had come when it didn’t matter where they worshipped, but that they worshiped in Spirit and in truth!
Reading this makes me realize how much fair these people had to have. It also shows how much God truly knows about us and how he has the answers to everything even if it doesn’t make sense at the time. God is so good!
love the story of Jesus and the samaritan woman. when the woman went back to bring the other samaritans to Jesus at the well and with vs. 42 where the samaritans said that they believe not just because of her but because they heard Jesus for themselves. it’s so important for us to share the gospel and it’s also important for people to see God for themselves as well.
I wonder why God “confused the people” then dispersed them

The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
I love the women and the well story. It is beyond beautiful!

Such a cool story of Jesus and the woman at the well!
