Give Me A Drink

Contributed by Samuel M on Aug 7, 2024

Jesus asks the samaritan woman for a cup of water. This is the greatest paradox in the Bible. Jesus never asked anything from anyone. He always gives but rarely asks for something from others. Jesus comes to the most broken person and expects something from her. The broken person has nothing(in ...read more
