JACOB'S WELL
Through my walk with God, I have come to learn that our timing is not his timing, He advice's to wait unto him, which at times can be be very difficult, to do, I sat down and waited on him, to direct me on the next step as to the project he had put in my heart, but he was quite, it was a waiting period, suddenly coming from a source I had never expected. February 19th would change everything and awaken my promise.
It’s the new Pastors Inauguration ceremony, so reluctantly we go to show support, not knowing that things were about to turn for the good. While downstairs at Adison hall mingling with the crowd, the pastor says he would like me to meet a long time friend of his, what would aspire after the meeting, was just incredible, A borehole water project in Kenya.
I drove back home excited, and admired how and what God had done, I got on my knees and asked if this was his doing, he confirmed by giving me this verse from John 4, the Samaritan woman at Jacobs Well, hence the name Jacob’s Well, Whoever drinks of the water I should give him will not thirst, but the water that I give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life. The significance of Jacob’s well is that it provided an opportunity for Jesus to present Himself as the life-giving Messiah to a Samaritan woman and, later, to her whole village. The woman had asked, “Are you greater than our father Jacob?” The answer is a resounding “yes.” Jacob may have provided his children with physical water in an arid land, but Jesus provides His children with “living water” in a spiritual wasteland. The life Jesus gives satisfies all our needs and springs up to eternal life (John 4:14).
