At times, we find it hard to trust Jesus. Much like the woman at the well, we wonder how He will be able to uphold his promise.
“Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? – John 4:11
Our perspective: We don’t see how Jesus could get us water, much less living water – he doesn’t even have a bucket.
Jesus’ perspective: He desires the best for us. He wants us to have life and life to the full. He promises living water and delivers on the that promise – because he himself has come.
It’s not always that we don’t trust Him, but we just can’t even wrap our minds around what he might do.
In reality, it’s how faith grows. We don’t understand, but when Jesus comes through on his promise, we finally get it. This happens over and over until we learn to trust even when we don’t understand.
Jesus didn’t need a bucket that day. He is the living water. What are you going through? Jesus will provide. We can’t even imagine how!
