Loving Like Jesus, Paying Attention

Loving like Jesus requires us to pay attention, to see people around us and to care for them, even when we have a million reasons not to. Let’s learn from Jesus as we see how He interacted with the Samaritan woman at the well.

Scriptures:

John 4:4-26; 39-42

“Everyone… wants to feel seen and affirmed. Everyone wants to know that their presence matters: that someone knows their name, hears the tremble in their voice and cares for them unconditionally.”
