John 4 is so amazing!

Jesus had a Divine appointment ~~ His Spiritual food was to save hungry souls, sinners blind to the Truth .

oh, this is so amazing, The God of the Universe chose to 'tent' with us sinners! Our amazing God knew from before time began that He would save, restore, and renew the righteous! No, no, He came to earth to save and restore lost sinners.

Oh, look what our All powerful God chose to do (condescending to reach mankind) to save us sinners! His Food satisfying Him was saving the lost!

I am anxious to meet the woman at the well . . I believe she was born and meant for this Divine appointment.

What amazing transformation!! The LORD GOD came to earth, and knew from before time began, made an appointment with her, and transformed her to the living waters of salvation.

What Powerful Amazing Grace, our God left His Throne and came to earth to save mankind, relating Personally to His creation, drawing sinners to Himself, freeing those receiving Him from guilt~!

Our Lord graciously patiently revealed to the woman at the well as only He does, her sins . . this woman, an outcast had a Divine appointment with The Creator! He opened her spirit to 'see' the Messiah standing right there in her midst . .

As tired as our Lord Lord was that day, He knew He had to go through Samaria . . and sat down by the well. Oh, the depth of this Divine appointment!

There obviously was an attitude by the Samaritan woman, at first, asking 'this Jewish Man who approached her: “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?”

Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and he would have given you living water.” . . John 4:10

What Divine Patience and gentle approach to her . . so much so, the woman exclaimed: , “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”

This Divine appointment was hers to behold, teaching her that true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.

The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”

Then Jesus declared, “I, THE ONE speaking to you— I AM HE" . . .

God loves to save sinners!

Dave, singing the song with you . . ~~~ we just know we'll be singing this in Heaven, in our Lord's Presence, so worthy is our God of all Glory~

. . . "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see" . .

Tender Reed... lately I've been praying to the Lord for that kind of love for Him... that passionate, no holes barred kind of love. There are just days that seem He is so far way and my love seems to have waned as well. Then you reminded me of people like Mary who so loved Him because she simply realized and responded to how great He loved her. Irresistible love. We cannot love right until we understand and embrace just how much we are loved by the Lord in spite of all our wrongs.

Amen. It's what He lived for. It's what He died for. It's what He lives for.

beautiful as always, thanks.
learned this song in gospel choir yesterday -
brought tears to my eyes...

'when we've been here 10,000 years
bright shining as the sun....'
sometimes it feels like that these days ( bone weary)

but then - the hope -

'we've no less grace to give God praise than when we first begin'... along with john the baptist and all the carpenter's pals, we shall meet them all. Wow- wee !!!
