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 NIV84)
Jesus said to the woman "If you knew?
I Love this passage for so many reasons, but I think that one question just gets me the most..
Isn't that like a our life though?
If we only knew the gift of God and who he is, how much more would we ask him for living water, as in things in the eternal?
We are so often unaware is this woman was of who is actually in our presence, and how much power he holds.
We question him without even thinking about the weight of what could happen with him in our presence.
If we only knew...
How many more would be saved?
How much more would we be whole?
How many more dreams would be pursue?
If we only knew the power of him...
Sometimes when the people in my life struggle or do not have a relationship with God, I think of this encounter...
I want to say to them "if only you knew him like I do...
"if only you knew what he could do in your life.
I am constantly using the line "you don't even know what it's like there!"
Mostly to my father who is very against God, church and well... Me!
I guess this verse is my heart for those who don't know, because if they knew they would ask and he would give them living water.
