"I Am He"

Earlier this week, I read John 4:4-26.  Here Jesus tells the woman He meets at the well that “whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst,” and later, when she acknowledges that Messiah is coming, He replies, “I am He.”  These three words, I AM HE, have echoed through my mind this week as we have sold our house (yes, it’s true…we are just waiting on the results of the appraisal!); have provisions for Jon’s diabetic medications for the entire six months; have been blessed by the formation of a prayer group just for Ellie; received financial support from family and friends; and were touched by Jon’s siblings who forsook the giving of Christmas gifts to each other to give all their gifts to us.  And all these “big things” to us are, in reality, small things for the One who spoke the world into existence and whose footstool is the world.
