The Samaritan woman has a lot to think about. Here is a man who told her life story in a nut shell, yet did not put her down for it. She recognizes him as a prophet. She is emotionally and spiritually touched by him. She is almost afraid to verbalize the question that is reverberating in her mind. She dare not ask it, so she expresses it as a statement. “I know that Messiah is coming…When he comes, he will tell us all things” (John 4:25)
Jesus answers her unspoken question. “I who speak to you am he.”
If you too are unsure, ask him. He will let you know.
