He Reaches Out to the Rejected

Who have you rejected? Is there a person or a group of people that you just don’t enjoy being around, for whatever reason? Okay, now imagine Jesus walking right up to that person or group and starting a conversation.

Jesus had no interest in avoiding unsavory characters…even the most controversial people of His time.

There’s a story in John chapter 4 of Jesus walking right up to a Samaritan woman at a community well. And it says…

The woman was surprised, for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans. And she said to Jesus, “You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman. Why are you asking me for a drink?”

He went on to tell her the secret sins of her life, and revealed to her that He was the Messiah. She then went and told her whole village and it says many believed because of her testimony.

Jesus reaches out to those who are rejected. Will you?
