John:4:27-38
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And on this ,
His disciples came and marveled that He was speaking with a woman .
However ,
no one said ,
What do you seek ?
Or ,
Why do You speak with her ?
*
Then the woman left her waterpot and went away into the city and said to the men ,
*
Come ,
see a Man who told me all things ,
whatever I did .
Is this One not the Christ ?
*
Therefore ,
they went out of the city and came to Him .
*
But in the meantime the disciples asked Him ,
saying ,
Rabbi ,
eat ?
*
But He said to them ,
I have food to eat which you do not know .
*
Then the disciples said to one another ,
No one brought Him food to eat ?
*
Jesus said to them ,
My food is that I should do the will of Him who sent Me ,
and that I may finish His work .
*
Do you do not say ,
It is yet four months and the harvest comes ?
Behold ,
I say to you ,
Lift up your eyes and behold the fields ,
for they are already white to harvest .
*
And the one reaping receives reward ,
and gathers fruit to everlasting life ,
so that both the one sowing and the one reaping may rejoice together .
*
For in this the word is true ,
that another is the one sowing ,
and another the one reaping .
*
I sent you to reap what you have not labored over .
Others have labored ,
and you have entered into their labor .
