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
