TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Therefore I tell you, her sins, many
[as they are], are forgiven her—because she has loved much. But he who is
forgiven little loves little.
Luke 7:47, AMP.
TODAY'S WORD:
Did you know that forgiveness opens
the door for love to operate in your life? This scripture passage is talking
about the story of the woman with the alabaster box of costly perfume. She was
a notorious sinner in her day, and when she saw Jesus, she fell at His feet and
began washing them with her tears and drying them with her hair. She knew she
was forgiven. When she received Christ’s forgiveness, love was the automatic
response. She was forgiven of much, and her love was extravagant.
Do you want more love in your
life? Do you want to feel more of God’s love and have stronger relationships
with the people around you? Open your heart to forgiveness. Receive Christ’s
forgiveness and extend it to others. When you are forgiven much, you will love
much. As Christ’s love flows through you, your faith will be strengthened, your
hope will be renewed, and you will be empowered to live the abundant life He
has in store for you!
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Father, Thank You for loving me.
Thank You for Your forgiveness which opens the door for Your love to flow
through me. Show me Your love and help me to be a light and example of love
everywhere I go in Jesus’ name. Amen.
