John 4:25

John 4:25 says, The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.  The woman said she knew the Messiah was coming, and when He did, He would tell us all things.  She had some understanding of God's word, but like the Jews, was looking for a different messiah.  Verse twenty-six adds, Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.  Jesus came, not to tell us all things, but to show us the way to redemption.  Jesus replied to her that He was the One she spoke of.  Even when we fail to recognize Him, Jesus will make Himself known to us.  Like the woman, we may fail to recognize Him when we first come in His presence, but He will not leave us until we truly know Who He is.  From His encounter with the woman at the well, we see that Jesus was indeed human since He was tired and thirsty.  We see that He never excludes people because of where they were born.  Jews may have avoided Samaritans, but Jesus didn't.  We see that He initiates the contact.  He comes to us to invite us to come to Him.  We see that what Jesus offers is better than anything we have.  We see that God is not limited by the physical rules of life, as He is Spirit.  We see that God gives us a chance to serve Him, even when He could do everything without us.  Finally, we see that the place we worship God is not important, as long as we worship Him in Spirit and in truth.;
