Bible Commentary

John 4:28

She left behind the very thing she came for — the water jar. She had found something infinitely better. The best news always makes you drop everything and run.

Memory phrase: When you find Jesus, you run to tell others.

Talk about it: She left her water jar behind — the whole reason she came! What does that show about how she felt after meeting Jesus?

Prayer: Jesus, fill me with such joy in You that I cannot keep it to myself.
