A question about why he was speaking with her

A question about whether he was staying long

Pause, listen, and ask a respectful question

Assume the conversation is wrong and pull away

Keep your opinion private while quietly judging

Demand an immediate explanation to settle your discomfort

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I come to you needing mercy and new life. I admit that I have sinned and cannot save myself. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Lord. Receive me, forgive me, and lead me in your way. Amen.

Come to Jesus for Mercy

Lord, revive your Church where we have become cautious, silent, or impressed by appearances. Make us humble enough to notice people others overlook, and brave enough to love across barriers with grace. Awaken compassion in us again, and teach us to reflect the heart of Jesus in every conversation, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Your Church to Cross Boundaries

Father, when I am caught off guard, steady my heart. Keep me from quick judgment, help me listen with honor, and teach me to respond with patience and grace, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

A Steadier Heart When I'm Surprised

Pray by naming the situation that surprised you, asking God to show you what you do not understand, and then asking for one respectful question you can ask instead of reacting.

Pray Before You Judge

Thank God that Jesus was willing to speak with a person others might have kept at a distance. Thank him for a Savior who notices people, crosses barriers with grace, and treats the overlooked with dignity.

Thank God for Jesus' Open Heart

Pray for someone your community tends to ignore, for courage to greet them without fear, and for your church to reflect Jesus' welcome in ordinary conversations this week.

And upon this, His  disciples came, and they were amazed that He was speaking with a woman ; yet no one said, “What are You seeking?” or, “Why are You speaking with her?”
