Juan 4 John 4

El humilde carpintero de Nazaret fue el gran arquitecto del universo también. Autor desconocido.

Jesús le dice a la mujer,
“si conocieras el don de Dios, y quién es el que te dice: Dame de beber; tú le pedirías,-me orarías a mi.” Hay una correlación directa entre el no conocer a Jesús y el no pedir mucho de él. Una falla en nuestra vida de oración es por lo general, una falla en conocer a Jesús. “¡Si conocieras quien es el que te habla , me pedirías a mí!” El cristiano que no ora es como el chofer que intenta sacar el ómnibus del surco, solito porque no sabe que Clark Kent está a bordo. “Si conocieras, pedirías.”
John Piper, Desiring God, (Anhelando a Dios) p. 139





The humble carpenter of Nazareth was also the mighty architect of the universe. Author Unknown.

"Jesus says to the woman,
‘If you knew the gift of God and who I am, you would ask me—you would pray to me!’ There is a direct correlation between not knowing Jesus well and not asking much from Him. A failure in our prayer life is generally a failure to know Jesus. ‘If you knew who was talking to you, you would ask me!’ A prayerless Christian is like a bus driver trying alone to push his bus out of a rut because he doesn’t know Clark Kent is on board. ‘If you knew, you would ask.’
John Piper, Desiring God p.139.
