Passage 40 April 12 - Friday

Hunger Pains

Read: John 4:27–42

Hook: Can you think of an activity that you would skip a meal to do?

Book: Talking with this woman was better than food to Jesus for all the right reasons. Simply said, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work.” Everyday Jesus looked for people like this woman, who were deceived by traditions, attitudes, or personal failures. Just as food nourishes the body, His passion for bringing people home to the Father satisfied the longing of His heart. When God’s work becomes your daily food, the result is that people believe in Jesus as the Savior of the world.

Took: Try an experiment to develop your hunger for the right kind of food. Skip one meal this week and spend that time helping a person who is not a Jesus follower. Write out your plan and the results.
