John 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
The above text is the popular story of the occurrence between Jesus and the Samaritan woman. So much to draw from this occurrence, but amidst all that can be drawn is the fact that God Almighty was with this woman face to face, and yet she didn't know. This woman had so many questions to ask God, she told Jesus this. John 4:25 "The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things." Amazing! She had questions for God, but she never knew she was talking with God. This still happens to most people, sometimes you get answers to your inner cravings not by what or how you expect. We must be sensitive to answers to our prayers, sometimes answers may come not by how we expect but another way, we must be flexible in our minds to detect answers not the means by which they come. This woman was quite insensitive in as much as how Jesus gave her details about who was speaking with her, Jesus had to tell her "...if you know who speaks to you".
In your business, in as much as you pray for customers and patronizers, you should be sensitive to welcome those who come to you for directions, not every customer comes directly to buy things from you, you could be of help to someone and that same person becomes your biggest customer! Some have lost potential rich customers all to the fact they never considered such a person worthy of their attention. Be sensitive. God answers prayers, you're to position yourself for the answer(s) by being sensitive. Do have a great weekend ahead
