Ladies and Gentlemen, hear the Word of The LORD for TODAY!
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to have dinner with him, so Jesus went to his home and sat down to eat. When a certain immoral woman from that city heard He-Jesus was eating there, she brought a beautiful alabaster jar filled with expensive perfume.
Then she knelt behind him at his feet, weeping. As her tears fell on his feet, and she wiped them off with her hair. Then she kept kissing his feet and putting perfume on them. When the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he said to himself,
If this man were a prophet, He would know what kind of woman is touching Him. She’s a sinner!
Then Jesus answered his thoughts. “Simon,” He said to the Pharisee, “I have something to say to you.” “Go ahead, Teacher,” Simon replied.
Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon,
Look at this woman kneeling here. When I entered your home, you didn’t offer Me water to wash the dust from My Feet, but she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
You didn’t greet Me with a kiss, but from the time I first came in, she has not stopped kissing My Feet.
You neglected the courtesy of olive oil to anoint My Head, but she has anointed My Feet with rare perfume.
I tell you, her sins—and they are many—have been forgiven, so she has shown Me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.
Then Jesus said to the woman,
“Your sins ARE Forgiven.”
The men at the table said among themselves, “Who is this man, that He goes around forgiving sins?”
And Jesus said to the woman,
“Your Faith has saved you; go in Peace.”
.
Dear ones, when we realize just how much we have already been FORGIVE of, then Worship will naturally flow from our inner most being.
FORGIVENESS is the key to unlock the Power of God’s unconditional LOVE. Once we accept the fact that the Lord our God has totally and completely Forgiven us, then we can forgive others in exactly the same manner.
Don Francisco wrote a song about Jesus, Simon and a harlot. Listen to the words and understand that we are FORGIVEN by God’s GRACE and God’s Mercies that are new every morning.
And her sins were red as scarlet and now they're washed away.
The love and faith she's shown is all the price she has to pay
For the depth of God's Forgiveness, it's more than you can see
And in spite of what you think of her, she's beautiful to Me
Beautiful to Me!
