Woman as the Well
May I be like that well
where the Samaritan woman found You.
May I be like that place
where she found what was true.
May I be like that site
where's there's living water from Thee.
May I offer Your drink
to those who are thirsty...
May I be like that well
where others draw nourishment.
May I be as that source of help
where the Samaritan went.
May others find Jesus in me
as they seek the living water of You.
Oh, make me a well with
You flowing, making all things brand new!

Incredible poem, Cindy. It makes the reader imagine the well as a fountain of nourishment for the soul. Excellent! Best wishes, Carolyn Devonshire

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your inspiring poem. The living water that flows from God's eternal well never runs dry! A good reminder from your pen about the Samaritan woman at the well! We'll not thirst when we drink from God's well! Thanks for sharing...
Spiritually uplifting - nice reading this evening confirming one's own thoughts. Well done!...

Hello Cindy. Congratulations on your poem, "Woman as the Well" being published here at Whispers. Although I am a man, I can still truly identify with the woman who was at the well....I've been there many times myself. Your poem reminds me of just how helpless I am without the Savior and just how much He loves to heal and restore me and all His children that serve and obey Him. Blessings and continued success with your writing.

I loved your analogy of living water coming from you even as it came from Jesus to the Samaritan woman at the well.
