Forgiveness Drives Love
“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.”
Luke 7:47 (NLT)
Thought
Forgiveness changes everything. When someone’s been forgiven, they can’t help but be transformed by this radical grace. The woman who anointed Jesus’ feet understood the enormity of Jesus’ forgiveness (Luke 7:36-50). Do you?
Prayer Practice
Pause
Consider your posture toward Jesus—are you resting at His feet to worship Him? Take a few moments to do so now.
Rejoice
Tell God how much you love Him and why. Like the woman in Luke 7, when we’re forgiven much, we show much love.
Ask
Ask God to grant you the ability to show your love for Him daily, so others are drawn to Jesus through your faithfulness.
Yield
Give God any hesitation you may have to love Him lavishly in front of others. Allow Him to make you bold for the sake of His Kingdom!
