wk#7 We are forgiven
In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative power of genuine gratitude. The story of the sinful woman washing Jesus' feet with her tears illustrates how true awareness of our forgiveness leads to an overflow of love and devotion. Jesus teaches us that those who are forgiven much, love much. This challenges us to examine our own hearts - do we fully grasp the depth of God's forgiveness in our lives? Are we responding with heartfelt gratitude and worship? As we approach Holy Week, let's reflect on the immense cost of our forgiveness and allow that realization to fuel our devotion to Christ. The message urges us to move beyond mere words of thanks to offering our entire lives as 'living sacrifices' to God, echoing Paul's teaching in Romans 12:1-2. This radical gratitude can transform not just our individual lives, but the entire church community.
