Tuesday, December 6th Advent Mini-Devo - By the Gallions.
In Jesus’ encounter with the woman (in John chapter 4), He broke Jewish customs, one was speaking to a Samaritan woman. The Samaritan woman had isolated herself from others in the village, even going to the well at the hottest part of the day. She did this to avoid seeing anyone because she felt ashamed of her lifestyle (sin). In II Timothy 2:15 we are told to “present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed.” In this story Jesus crosses the cultural boundaries to extend relationship to a woman showing us that his love is for everybody and has no limits or boundaries. Through this story, Jesus’ persistent love startled even His disciples and shows us that His love has no bounds.
