Come…see….hear
The
Samaritan woman at the well has just had a life changing encounter with Jesus.
She hasn’t got her theology completely sorted out but she’s heard enough to
rush back to town, leaving her water jar behind – the very reason she was at
the well. She wants to tell others - ‘Come, see a man who told me everything
I’ve ever done. Could this be the Messiah?’ Her simple invitation spilled out
from her own experience and Jesus did the rest. He spoke to others from the
town and they believed, not just because of what she had said, but because they
had heard for themselves and knew that Jesus really is the Saviour of the
world.
Whether we
are highly trained theologians, or brand new followers of Jesus, or somewhere
in between, we can all invite others to come and see and hear. Maybe it’s a bit
easier at the moment when we don’t even have to ask them to leave their homes
to come to church or a homegroup or an online event!
Who can I invite to come, see and hear?
