Luke 7:40-48 (ESV)
40 And Jesus answering said to
him,
“Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he answered, “Say
it, Teacher.”
41 “A certain moneylender had two
debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 When
they could not pay, he cancelled the debt of both. Now which of them will
love him more?”
43 Simon answered,
“The one, I suppose, for
whom he cancelled the larger debt.” And he said to him, “You have judged
rightly.”
44 Then turning toward the woman he said to
Simon,
“Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no
water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them
with her hair.
45 You gave me no kiss, but from the time I
came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 You did
not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Therefore
I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But
he who is forgiven little, loves little.”
48 And he said to
her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
The woman received what she never requested which was
the forgiveness of her sins.
1. We must focus on who He is...His identity.
2. We must focus on what He has...His authority.
3. We must focus on worshiping Him... His
supremacy.
Where does Jesus rank in your life?
How do you
feel about Him?
Is your relationship with God a love story or a one sided story?
