The Fragrance of Feeling Forgiven: Gratefulness
44 - She has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head…
45 - This woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in…
46 - This woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil…
47 - Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much.
Are We Justifying Self or God?Luke 7:22-34
It’s Hard To be Grateful…
• When we are self-righteous.• When we don’t feel the need to repent.
Unless we believe God’s way as right (V. 29) we’ll never feel the full impact of His forgiveness.
Wisdom Is Justified By Her Children(Luke 7:35-50)
Genuine Gratefulness Cannot Be Contained
• Just as the people acknowledged God’s justice – by being baptized with the baptism of John. V. 29
• The woman could not contain her gratefulness for the forgiveness that Jesus came into this world give. Cp. Lk. 3:8; 5:32
What’s Your Fragrance?
…Like the Pharisees or Sinners?
