Seeing Jesus in Isaiah's Prophecyعينة

# Wonderful Counselor Kelli Baker Advent Series 2023 ## Day Six Good counselors will call out the areas where we need to change, grow, or repent. In my own journey, I have had counselors reveal areas of my life where I needed to change. Reflect on a time when you had someone point out something that you needed to work on. How did they offer the advice? How did you respond - were you repentant or rebellious? Jesus gives himself in return for our repentance, something man cannot do. In today’s passage, Jesus went out of his way to meet a woman at a well. As the woman approached the well in the heat of the day, Jesus saw her. He didn’t just see her outward appearance, but he saw her heart. He offered her the living water that only he can provide. She was searching for wholeness in all the wrong areas. Jesus called her on it. He told her to stop worshiping the things of this world and worship the Father in spirit and in truth. He exposed her darkest secrets, but gave her a place to go with them instead of shaming or belittling her. As she drank from his well, she was renewed. Our Wonderful Counselor wants to provide the living water we need to be whole. Where are you searching for wholeness? What are you worshiping in the place of the Father? Look to Jesus and let him fill you from the rivers of his delight. ## Prayer Dear Lord, thank you for the living water Jesus provides. Give us courage to come to you to fulfill our needs instead of the things of this world. Amen.
