“At that time, Jesus came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph. There was Jacob’s well. Jesus, tired from his journey, sat down at the edge of the well. It was about noon. Then a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.” (His disciples had gone into the village to buy food.) The Samaritan woman answered him, “How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.) Jesus said to her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is who asks you for a drink, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” The woman answered him, “Sir, you don’t even have water to draw with, and the well is deep. How can you give me living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?” Jesus replied, “Whoever drinks this water will thirst again. But whoever drinks the water I give them will never be thirsty. The water I give them will become in them springs of water welling up to eternal life.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty again and won’t have to keep coming all the way here to draw water.” He said to her, “Go, call your husband and come back.” The woman replied, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say, ‘I have no husband.’ You have had five husbands, and the one you have now is not your husband. In that you have spoken the truth.” The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that you are a prophet. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you say that the place where one ought to worship is in Jerusalem.” Jesus said to her, “Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You worship what you do not know, but we worship what we do know. For salvation is from the Jews. But the hour is coming, and is now here, when those who worship the Father will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for this is how the Father seeks to be worshipped. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.” The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah (that is, Christ) is coming. When he comes, he will give us an account of everything.” Jesus said to her, “It is I, the one speaking to you.” At this point, the disciples arrived and were surprised that he was talking with a woman. However, no one said to him, “What are you asking her, or what are you talking about with her?” Then the woman left her water jar and went into the town and began to say to the people, “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this not be the Messiah?” They left the town and started toward him. Meanwhile, his disciples urged him, “Teacher, eat.” He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.” The disciples said to each other, “Has anyone brought him anything to eat?” Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work. Don’t you say that there are still four months until the harvest? But I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already ripe for harvest. The reaper is already receiving his wages and laying up crops for eternal life. In this way, both the sower and the reaper rejoice. This is what is said: ‘One sows, another reaps.’ I sent you to reap what you had not worked for. Others worked, and you gathered their fruit.” Many Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.” When the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them, and he stayed there for two days. Many more believed in him when they heard his word. They said to the woman, “We no longer believe because of what you told us, for we have heard it ourselves, and we know that he is truly the Savior of the world”.”

John 4, 5-42

“Lord, you are the Savior of the world. Give me your living water so that I may never thirst again.”
