'Jesus, tired
Jesus, tired as He was from the journey
"Jacob's well was there, and Jesus, tired as He was from the journey , sat down by the well." John 4:6
When we have been working hard all day and are weary and faint, let us remember this picture — Jesus, footsore and dust-covered, sinking down in sheer exhaustion on the stone curb of Jacob's well.
He has not forgotten even in His glory, how He felt that day; and as He sees us in our weariness, His heart feels tenderly for us.
He looks down upon us in compassion, and sends to us a blessing of strength and cheer.
Let all Christians whose work is hard, and who often are very tired, frame this picture in their memory and keep it always hanging up on the wall of their heart: "Jesus, tired as He was from the journey, sat down by the well."
