WILLS POINT, TX – Explore how the outreach of a national missionary, coupled with the provision of clean water from Jesus Wells, rescued a widow from solitude and sickness.
Laya raised seven children who grew up and forgot their mother, leaving her behind as they moved to far-flung places. Her husband had died during a war, so Laya was completely alone. Only her one daughter visited her once a year.
Laya was growing older, and she had no one to help her with the most vital tasks, like fetching water. She had to jostle water buckets nearly two miles each way to the village well. She longed to skip the weary walk to the well that only produced murky water, so one day, she gathered courage and entered a building with a cheery yellow sign above the door: It was a GFA pastor’s church. Laya had heard that the well situated close to this building never ran dry.
Inside the building, Komali, the pastor’s wife, welcomed Laya, who asked if she could fill her buckets. Komali compassionately told Laya she could get water there any time. Relief flooded Laya’s heart, and the two women chatted pleasantly before Laya left with buckets of clear water at her side.
