[pull_quote_center]“Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, ‘How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?’ For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.” John 4:9 NKJV[/pull_quote_center]
Hatred between Jews and Samaritans was fierce and longstanding, that’s why the woman of Samaria was so surprised that Jesus, a Jewish man, spoke to her and even asked her for water! The Jews had no dealings with Samaritans, but Jesus broke the walls: He loved.
You see, love overcomes all boundaries. Love is not tribalistic, racist, proud, snobbish and egoistic; love is accommodating, love is friendly, love builds and establishes relationships where there’s none, love reaches out.
Some people wouldn’t have committed suicide if there was a person to show them love. Some of us have ostracized certain people from our lives. There are people some of us do not interact with, for whatever reason, at the office, in school, in our neighbourhoods, etc. Let’s be like Jesus; let’s surprise people today; let’s break the walls!
