I love when I read the scriptures and I see Jesus treating the downcast, the hurting,

the wounded, the outcasts with kindness in the scriptures.

And I think one of my favorite passages

is the woman at the well.

She was not living a healthy lifestyle.

She was longing for something. She met him and he offered her life and he was not
