That was the Вопрос Иисус asked the women at the well, as Ты read in John 4:7. Why would Иисус need man to do him a favor in the first place? Is He not the Almighty God who can do whatever He wants? So why would He need to ask a foreign women to give Him some water? Why would He ask Ты for a favor today?
Ты can respond like so many others do and say 'just leave me alone, I don't need you' and he probably would. Ты look at him just like one of these annoying insurance sales men that really don't want to leave Ты alone until they got Ты to either buy something from them или throw something at them.
But Иисус is not this kind of guy. He simply asks Ты for a favor and gives Ты an opportunity that will be for your own benefit in the end. Come on, it's no secret that the world is careless, best Друзья disappear when they are needed the most and the ones Ты Любовь will eventually kick Ты in the teeth.
Yeah right, and now Ты try to tell me that the church is any different? Well, I wish. But to be honest, it's probably not the truth. But I believe that God himself is really different. He doesn't push, he doesn't condemn. He really loves Ты in a way that is hard to believe. Your father might have been hard with Ты and your mother was never there for you, but the Любовь and acceptance that Ты will experience in His presence is amazing.
Ты don't need to proof anything. Ты don't need to pretend to be someone that you're not. Ты don't need to be perfect. Just face the crap in your сердце and be honest with Him. Tell Him something simple like 'I know that I'm full of crap and I can't change it.'. He will still listen. Ты see, there are a lot of preachers out there that preach огонь and brimstone and how sinful Ты are and that Ты are a miserable rotten sinner. But quite honestly, Ты knew that before. That is not good news!
The good news is that Ты don't have to stay like that. Иисус can transform your life and make it worth living again. That's the good news! He just needs your approval. He's not a selfish sales акула that doesn't care for you, but he gave everything up, including his own life, to make it possible for Ты to have a better and eternal life. When was the last time Ты saw a sales man selling all his own stuff to give Ты money to buy what Ты wanted? I have never seen someone like that! But that is exactly what Иисус did. He gave all He had to give Ты all Ты want. That is real love! It is hardly found in people today, but it is found in Him.
When He knocks at door of your сердце and asks Ты for a favor. Instead of ignoring Him, open your сердце wide and Ты will end up having еще than He has requested from you.
Trust him for once and say something like: 'Jesus, I'm quite a wreck and I ask Ты to forgive my sins. Please come and pour your Любовь into me'. What Ты will experience will be еще than just another moment of your life, but Ты will encounter the true power of God. Ты will feel a difference and Ты will be starting into a true adventure and into a life that is worth living.
'OK, and where is the small print?' Here it is:'Life is not just easy because of Jesus, but it is never hopeless. Ты will NOT just be a puppet of God, but a man empowered by God. Problems don't just disappear, but He will help Ты through and make Ты a way.
Be blessed.
