Woman at the Well

Thank you
for meeting us
in the ordinary, the practical
and the mundane;
At the height or
depth of our lives

Thank you, that in
Jesus, you listen to us
regardless of who we are

In Jesus, you care
enough to break
cultural and stereotypical
restraints

In Jesus,
you listen to
what we say in words
and beyond our words

Help us to
move from isolation
towards others;
To put aside our quickness
to judge or box.
To see in other
our sisters and brothers,
fathers and mothers

Jesus
our life and way,
thank you for
acknowledging
what every heart
has to say
