vw John:4:27-38 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And at this point His disciples came ,
and they marveled that He talked with a woman ;
yet no one said ,
What do You seek ?
or ,
Why are You talking with her ?
*
The woman then left her waterpot ,
went her way into the city ,
and said to the men ,
*
Come ,
see a Man who told me everything that I ever did .
Is this not the Christ ?
*
Then they went out of the city and came to Him .
*
In the meantime His disciples urged Him ,
saying ,
Rabbi ,
eat .
*
But He said to them ,
I have food to eat of which you do not know .
*
Therefore the disciples said to one another ,
Has anyone brought Him anything to eat ?
*
Jesus said to them ,
My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me ,
and to finish His work .
*
Do you not say ,
There are yet four months and then comes the harvest ?
Behold ,
I say to you ,
Lift up your eyes and look at the fields ,
for they are already white for harvest .
*
And he who reaps receives wages ,
and gathers fruit for eternal life ,
that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together .
*
For in this the saying is true :
One sows and another reaps .
*
I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored ;
others have labored ,
and you have entered into their labors .
