At the Well Again


There was a Tweet on the 17th by an author I had not heard of before. Nadia Bolz-Weber. A quick search of her reveals she loves the unloved and cares a great deal about people. 

Here's what she wrote:

Nadia Bolz-Weber @Sarcasticluther
We all come back from the grocery store to the sight of Jesus just chatting it up at the well with Steve Bannon. Jesus is the worst.




I have to say, this made my heart glow. She got a lot of responses. Most I loved. Some didn't get it. I do. I so get it.

    To me it speaks of the fact that Jesus can speak to anyone and everyone in everyday life.

      Ha ha! Pamela, it's funny to me that people keep saying unlovable in the comments. Um? Haha... we don't know that.

    Hi Sandi! Like Brenda, I think of Jesus loving the unlovable in every age and time. Whoever that is for you or for me, they deserve the love of God, and our respect as his creation.
    Thanks for sharing this,
    Ceil

    Hello, I would find it hard to chat with someone like Bannon. It is awesome that Jesus can love the evil people in this world.

    hard to get until you realize that this life is but a dream... there is no good, there is no evil,
    there just IS.

      I wish I could see it that way, but I see evil every day on the news. I am thankful for the good, though.

    Sandi, I get this. What a day we live in, eh?

    What I've always loved about the story of the woman at the well is that before He went there, He said He must NEEDS go by there. He will travel out of His way to speak to every willing heart.

    i read a quote today on Facebook that kind of stuck with me "love everyone and god will take care of things in the end"!!

    i like the love everyone part - my faith is a little bit different than yours as i don't really believe in organized religion!!!
