Handful of disciples

After the Resurrection. After the coming of the Holy Spirit. The Lord uses a handful of disciples.

They’re the talk of the Roman Empire.

Hungry for what?

It’s one of those days. Weeks. Seasons. In various places and spaces of our life. And I struggle with restlessness. Discontentment. Distraction. 

Hungry for something I can’t quite put my finger on.

In the middle of such a season, I read John 4. During morning time in His Word. And pause on the verses that come after the woman at the well heads back to her village. 

The conversation between Jesus and His disciples.
