We read of many wells in the Bible, and some of them are to be found now.
There is "Jacob's Well," where Jesus promised the Living Water to the woman of Samaria; and there is this well at Nazareth, which is called "Mary's Well" now, because people feel sure that Mary, the dear mother of Jesus, must have drawn water at it when she lived at Nazareth.
It is nice to think that the feet of Jesus as a little child walked along those roads; that His eyes rested on those very hills that surround Nazareth; that He picked some of the countless flowers that grow all over the fields and make a carpet of beautiful colours such as we never see here.
This was the home of Jesus all the time He was a child; and here He lived every day, and watched Joseph at his work in his carpenter's shop. It was here that He lived an obedient, dutiful life, and grew in favour with God and with men. It was here He pleased His Heavenly Father in all things.
It is a nice thought, children, that whatever age you are, He was just that age too; so that He knows what children's feelings are, and all their little trials or joys or temptations.
He lives in heaven now, it is true, but He is ready to help you if you look up to Him.
I do not mean looking up with your eyes, but with your heart and your thoughts.
Just a little word or two spoken in Your heart will bring help from Jesus!
A little prayer of three words has made many a person happy when he was miserable before.
"Lord help me!" or "Lord save me!" will bring Jesus near in a moment; and He does help and save!
