“For this reason I say to you, her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little.” (Luke 7:47, NASB)
The more we value something, the higher it rises in our list of what is important.
The woman in today’s scripture valued the forgiveness of God. It wasn’t something she had taken for granted, and this singular act of God’s grace was always clear, near, and present.
Simon, who is also a part of the narrative of this scripture, took a lot of God’s gifts for granted — and it was apparent that he “loves little.”
Who are we: The woman who was filled with gratitude, awe, and love for her Lord because she appreciated the gifts of God; or Simon, who didn’t see the hand from Whom all of his blessings had come? – Luther

Thank you for sharing this post with us! This woman demonstrates how being mindful of God’s forgiveness can help us to love and forgive others around us as well. It is what I wrote about in my own post. I enjoy writing about these verses and supporting the teachings of Jesus with findings in the field of positive psychology, which is the scientific study of well-being and happiness.
