Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, ‘Come, see a man who told me everything I’ve ever done. Could this be the Messiah?’ They came out of the town and made their way towards him. Meanwhile his disciples urged him, ‘Rabbi, eat something.’ But he said to them, ‘I have food to eat that you know nothing about.’ Then his disciples said to each other, ‘Could someone have brought him food?’ ‘My food,’ said Jesus, ‘is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work. Don’t you have a saying, “It’s still four months until harvest”? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. Even now the one who reaps draws a wage and harvests a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. Thus the saying “One sows and another reaps” is true. I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labour.’ Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman’s testimony, ‘He told me everything I’ve ever done.’ So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. And because of his words many more became believers. They said to the woman, ‘We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world.’

In this devotional, I want to share the lifelong impact that I believe comes when we take someone to Jesus. I want us to discover what it looks like to allow ourselves to be carried to Jesus when we can’t find the strength to walk on our own and to experience how it feels to be completely restored by Jesus so we can take up His charge to carry others.
God sees you. He sees your disappointment, grief, and loneliness. He sees you in your unhappy marriage or unfulfilling job. Discover what happens when we encounter the God who sees us. His vision gives us value, hope, and strength. Join Andy Lee in this 3-day devotional as she digs into the story of Hagar and the Samaritan woman who were seen by the Living God when they needed Him most.
