The Gift

John 4:10

Samaritan woman at the well

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.”

.

Prayer 

Father God, giver of all life, forgive us our unbelief in your living water. Ignite in our hearts a desire to unwrap more of your gift, change our hearts, Lord, and renew us from within. May we see with new eyes, our neighbour and ourselves – with Christ Jesus at our centre. Amen.
