God is a Spirit: and they that worship Him must
worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. The
woman saith unto Him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when
He is come, He will tell us all things.
Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am He. John, Chapter 4, verses 24-26.
Have you ever watched movies where men or women are
looking for their true love, but have a good friend they overlook because they
are looking for the ideal partner? The
majority of the movie is focused on the main character pursuing people who are
attractive, popular, etc., but never are satisfied. Later, in the movie, they find that the ideal
person for them is their true-blue friend who has been there, all along.
It’s like this lady who is desperately searching for
Jesus, without realizing He is right in front of her. He isn’t attractive, popular, etc., so He
might go unnoticed. He is our true-blue
friend and Savior who is there to save us, but do we notice Him? Like the song says, “Looking for love in all
the wrong places,” do we want to be a “Looking for Jesus in All the Wrong
Places Christian” or should we stop to realize that He has been right here in
front of us, all along?
Since this is an example of the positive influence God has made on my walk with Christ, this may not reflect the whole meaning of the Bible verses.
