John 4:28-29

Then the woman left her water jar and went back to the city. She said to the people, “Come and see a man who told me everything I have ever done! He cannot be the Messiah, can he?”

Leaving behind the very thing

that took her to the well

in her haste to share

the gift she encountered there

She rushed back to the city 

Sent

With her thirst quenched

 and her passion ignited

 she could not wait

 to tell others

Sent

without being sure of response 

And, catching her excitement

and witnessing her renewal

her community took off

to see for themselves 

Sent

To check out

the witness she bore

the story she told

about the one 

who told her story.
