Jesus said to her

So obviously simple, and so endlessly deep words...
What does it mean "to believe"? Well, certainly not only the intellectual acknowledgement of Jesus' existence, since many saw Him in His day and did not believe. What didn't they believe then? His Deity, His being the Son of God. Believing in Him means obeying Him, and trusting Him without hesitation, onto death and into eternal life.
Who can understand it...unless it is granted to us by the Father?
