John chapter 4 tells the story of Jesus encounter with a Samaritan woman at a well. People focus a lot on what was said at the well but for this conversation I will like to focus on just the well. Jesus is a Jew and this woman is a Samaritan. Two different backgrounds two different cultures both gathering in a place for a common cause. The well is a place that where ever you are from and what ever you are, you still must come. The well was intended for one type of person, a thirsty one. The church should be this well where people come to share in maybe the one thing we all have in common, our thirst. Jesus displays this wonderfully and it should serve as an example for us. Lets not divide on our differences but let us unite in our commonalities, our thirst.
