WOMAN, YOUR FAITH HAS SAVED YOU
LuKE 7:36-50
“Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—for she loved
much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”
Luke 7: 47
Lord, today I give you thanks because you know
how to look at things as they are and with all the profundity of your love.
I recall
that woman who brought a jar of perfume to the house of Simon the Pharisee and
who showed you her affection in many ways… And I recall how everyone criticized
her for it: “He has to know what kind
of woman she is…”
However,
with your deep gaze that uncovers the value beyond any price, you made it clear
through parables and everything else, that even imperfect love is more
important than acting “correctly” without love.

Let us pray: Lord,
we women usually have innumerable gestures of love, care, service and
protection which seem to go unnoticed. Thank you for knowing how to see and
value these gestures. Thank you for
giving us a place by Your side. Amen.
MUJER, TU FE TE HA SALVADO
Lucas 7:36-50
“Por eso te digo que sus muchos pecados
le son perdonados, porque amó mucho.
Pero a quien poco se le perdona,
poco ama”
Lucas 7: 47
Señor, hoy te quiero dar
gracias porque sabes mirar las cosas tal como son y con toda la profundidad de
tu amor.
Recuerdo aquella mujer que trajo el frasco de
perfume a la casa de Simón el fariseo, y te mostró su cariño de muchas
maneras.... Y recuerdo que todos te criticaban por eso: “éste
tiene que saber quién es esta”
Sin embargo, con tu mirada profunda que
descubre el valor más allá del precio, resaltaste con parábola y todo, que el
amor aunque imperfecto, es más importante que lo “correcto” sin amor.

Oremos: Señor, las mujeres solemos tener innumerables gestos de amor, cuidado,
servicio y protección que parecieran pasar desapercibidas. Gracias por saber
ver y valorar esos gestos. Gracias por darnos un lugar junto a Ti. Amén
