Jesus offers to all living water, that will become in us “a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The saviour of the world offered that hope to Samaritans, hated by the Jews, and he offers us that same hope. People’s faith in Jesus was rewarded quickly and openly in Jesus’ time, yet we can be sure that our faith will also be rewarded.
So let us “worship the Father in spirit and truth”, and apply our heart to knowledge, that our trust may be in the Lord.
