She met Jesus (literally)

This morning I spent time in silence, prayer and meditation on Scripture and I read John's account of Jesus speaking with a woman in Samaria (John 4).  It is a fascinating conversation that centered on water and worship and Spirit.  At the end, she tells him (an interesting stranger to town) that one day the Messiah/Christ will come and will tell her and the world all things.  In a rare moment, Jesus identifies Himself "I who speak to you am he."

She met Jesus LITERALLY.  Her life and apparently a whole town's future was changed by this divine meeting.

What could change in our world if those of us who've met Jesus simply talked Him up a bit more?
