When Jesus Asked For A Drink To A Woman With A Thirsty Heart
When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?” John 4:7 Jesus was going to Galilee and decided to pass through Samaria. He intentionally visited the place to meet a woman who was despised and condemned by people. This woman had five husbands, and the person he was living with was not her husband. She had a past that made her feel shameful and isolated. Jumping from one man to another. Isn’t it a symptom of a thirsty heart? It’s a visible indication that this woman longs to receive the kind of love that no ordinary man can give. It was…

There is Power in your Tears
It’s hard to deal with things that you can’t see. I wish we had the right lens to magnify the real things inside. The wounds in our hearts. The past that we can’t forget. The traumas we’ve been through. The pain that we can’t let go. All those things are invisible. We can’t physically touch or see them, but they are real. Sometimes, they are more real than the victories you experienced in life. They are bigger than the excitement that you have for the future. The tears are more evident than the smile and laughter. But even if, most of the time, the reason for your tears is so…

And because we live in a modern world where we can easily get the things that we want, we tend to have this impatient attitude that somehow keeps us from experiencing the will of God. Not only that, when we are overwhelmed by our situation, we tend to allow our emotions to take over. We somehow forget the important things because we focus on what we are facing. Our strengths are limited. We are not perfect. This is the reason why we need Jesus in our lives. We must put Him at the center so that we will…
