Weekly Reflection
...Shall Never Thirst
03-08-2026 | We Celebrate Worship Resource, Vol. 49, No. 1In Samaria and elsewhere, women typically went to draw water from the well in the cool of the morning, accompanied by friends and neighbors. But this woman comes alone in the heat of midday. Perhaps the other women in the town shunned or pitied her after so many marriages. But she cannot live without water, so she approaches the well even though an unfamiliar man is already sitting there.
In his foreign accent, this Jewish man asks her for a drink, breaking cultural and religious boundaries. They go on to speak of her life and living water, of Samaritan and Jews, of worship and faith. She had come to draw water, but instead is drawn into conversation. She had come for water, but leaves her water jar behind.
She had come alone, but leaves to tell the whole town. She had come with what seems to be a history of unsuccessful love, but leaves in love with the Messiah, the Christ. At the well where Jacob met Rachel, she meets the one who transforms her life.
What would Jesus uncover about you in an encounter with him? How does the water of eternal life quench your spiritual thirst?

...Nuncamás Tendrá Sed
En Samaria y otros lugares, las mujeres solían ir a sacar agua del pozo al fresco de la mañana, acompañadas de amigas y vecinas. Pero esta mujer llega sola en el calor del mediodía. Quizás las demás mujeres del pueblo la rechazaban o la compadecían después de tantos matrimonios. Pero no puede vivir sin agua, así que se acerca al pozo aunque un hombre desconocido ya está sentado allí.
Con su acento extranjero, este judío le pide de beber, rompiendo barreras culturales y religiosas. Continúan hablando de su vida y del agua viva, de samaritanos y judíos, de adoración y fe. Ella había ido a sacar agua, pero en cambio se ve envuelta en una conversación. Había ido por agua, pero dejó su cántaro.
Había venido sola, pero se va a contárselo a todo el pueblo. Había venido con lo que parece ser una historia de amor fallido, pero se va enamorada del Mesías, el Cristo. En el pozo donde Jacobo conoció a Raquel, ella conoce a quien transforma su vida.
¿Qué descubriría Jesús sobre ti en un encuentro con él? ¿Cómo calma el agua de la vida eterna tu sed espiritual?
