Jesus says: "I tell you, then, the great love she has shown proves that her many sins have been forgiven. But whoever has been forgiven little shows only a little love." ~ Luke 7:47 (GNT)
KEY IDEA:
People who realize their forgiveness are joyous and very loving people.PRAYER:
There are times, Lord, when my memory of past sins and failures overshadows my joy at being your redeemed child. Forgive me for sitting in judgment of myself and forgetting that you are the one pure, merciful judge. I am freed by your cross to share your grace and mercy with others. Help me to do so with confidence. Amen. (Daily Texts, Mount Carmel Ministries edition)
