Listen from:
(Luke 7:36-50.) “Her sins are forgiven; for she loved much." The Lord is able to make this pardon known. He reveals it to the poor woman. But it was that which she had seen in Jesus Himself which, by grace, melted her heart and produced the love she had to Him-the seeing what He was for sinners like herself. She thinks only of Him. He has taken possession of her heart so as to shut out other influences.... She goes into the house of this proud man without thinking of anything but the fact that Jesus is there.... She saw what He was for a sinner, and that the most wretched and disgraced found a resource in Him.... A Savior-God being present, of what importance was Simon and his house? Jesus caused all else to be forgotten. Let us remember this.
