Word 82 of 310Forgiveness

Your faith has saved you; go in peace.

Luke 7:50

BSB

Read Luke 7 in a modern translation BSB
Read the whole chapter (Luke 7)

Go in peace

Jesus was a guest at a Pharisee's house. A woman with a bad reputation came in, wept on his feet, dried them with her hair and anointed them. The host was offended.

Jesus told a story about two people in debt, one owing a great deal and one a little. Whoever is forgiven much, loves much. He sent her away with words she would never forget: go in peace.

Question for today

How much have I been forgiven, and how great is my love?

Prayer

Lord Jesus, you saw her tears and not her reputation. See me that way too. Thank you for your forgiveness. Let me go in peace. Amen.
