Luke 7:36 One of the Pharisees asked
Jesus to come to his home for a meal, so Jesus accepted the invitation and sat
down to eat.
37 A certain
immoral woman heard he was there and brought a beautiful jar filled with
expensive perfume.
38 Then she knelt
behind him at his feet, weeping. Her tears fell on his feet, and she wiped them
off with her hair. Then she kept kissing his feet and putting perfume on them.
39 When the
Pharisee who was the host saw what was happening and who the woman was, he said
to himself, "This proves that Jesus is no prophet. If God had really sent him,
he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She's a sinner!"
40 Then Jesus
spoke up and answered his thoughts. "Simon," he said to the Pharisee, "I have
something to say to you." "All right, Teacher," Simon replied, "go ahead."
41 Then Jesus
told him this story: "A man loaned money to two people -- five hundred pieces of
silver to one and fifty pieces to the other.
42 But neither of
them could repay him, so he kindly forgave them both, canceling their debts. Who
do you suppose loved him more after that?"
43 Simon
answered, "I suppose the one for whom he canceled the larger debt." "That's
right," Jesus said.
44 Then he turned
to the woman and said to Simon, "Look at this woman kneeling here. When I
entered your home, you didn't offer me water to wash the dust from my feet, but
she has washed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45 You didn't
give me a kiss of greeting, but she has kissed my feet again and again from the
time I first came in.
46 You neglected
the courtesy of olive oil to anoint my head, but she has anointed my feet with
rare perfume.
47 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."
48 Then Jesus
said to the woman, "Your sins are forgiven."
49 The men at the
table said among themselves, "Who does this man think he is, going around
forgiving sins?"
50 And Jesus said
to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace (NLT)
Show your love.
Mat 25:37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
Mat 25:38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Mat 25:39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
Mat 25:40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

He is raised from the grave. He is with us; He walks with me and talks with me and tells me I am His own...I love you Jesus, my Lord and my God.
