The story of the woman at a well found in John 4 is a profound teaching that Jesus embraces all persons. The woman was a Samaritan (an unpopular mixed race) and had a bad reputation. Jewish men would not have talked to this sort of woman. Not an issue for Jesus. All people mattered to him.
Do all people matter to you?
Pray for the heart to embrace all people regardless of social position, past history, beliefs, gender, and race.
Act by loving somebody regardless of their social position, past history, beliefs, gender, and race.
