Naked #43

And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account (Hebrews 4:13).
 
“Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?"(Luke 18:8).
 
44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.” 48 Then He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven." 49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?" 50 Then He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace." (Luke 7:44–50).
 
This woman knew Jesus well enough to worship Him with extravagance. For what was she having faith? For exactly what she received—forgiveness of her sins. She wanted to made clean. How was her faith expressed? Through love. Do we love Him enough to be extravagant? To spend our money on Him? To express our love in public, even when no one else is doing so? From this act of love her sins were forgiven, she received salvation (to spend eternity in heaven with God) grace to live in abundance here on earth—salvation has weighty significance—and she received peace. Peace is priceless. It is rare on the earth, but in heaven peace is the atmosphere. She received heaven on earth!
 
May your faith save you!
