24th Week, Ordinary Time, Thursday, 16-09-2021

1 Tim 4:12-16 / Luke 7:36-50     

We know that love is beautiful and powerful.

With love, there can be peace and unity.

We all have love in our hearts and live it out in our lives, we have the benefits of spiritual and physical health.

As much as we would want to live lives of love, yet we know that when we sin, we become laden with guilt and pain.

The effects of sin suppresses the love that is in us, and we can't be the loving person to others.

We desire for forgiveness and healing and that is what Jesus came to do for us.

Jesus came to forgive our sins and to heal the spiritual wounds of our hearts so that we can be free to love again.

He did that for the woman who poured out her tears on His feet, wiped them with her hair and anointed them with ointment.

Forgiveness and healing is also what Jesus is offering to us.

And just as Jesus forgives us, let us also forgive those who have done wrong to us.

Let there be healing and reconciliation so that the world will know how beautiful and powerful love is.
