It’s astonishing to think about dining with God. I see myself as this woman who awkwardly crashed into one of these dinners and sobbed at the feet of Jesus. It is this moment. (Luke 7:36-50) A Pharisee, Simon, thought he had it all. Invites Jesus to dinner likely to convince himself he has Jesus all figured out. His self assessment was locked into his own knowledge and because of this - was not truly needful for God. He had pride over his earthly performance. Now. He is eating a meal with Jesus. How mind blowing to consider - this self assured - “I know all the answers” guy is eating a meal with God. But he has no idea…. And then a dinner crasher shows up. A woman described as a known sinner. What does she do? She likely gives up something highly valuable she earned in a way she regrets, which is an alabaster flask of scented oil. And she doesn’t want it. Her heart instead yearns for union with God. The “know it all guy ” can’t recognize God, yet this woman who had no cultural credibility and likely filled with shame - and desperation - knows. She knows this is God. She could care less about this scented thing the world gave her. “Take it. I want you”. It’s also saying “take anything here that said my life was valuable - I need you”. She wants only what Jesus can give. And she is so taken in to love Him, she sobs at his feet…. so many tears. Likely the tears of her hard life of one awful thing leading her to give herself over to more awful things. She gives her broken and defeated heart to Jesus. And like that…. an eternal lesson is being taught to Simon’s proud, blind and misaligned heart - not needful of the one thing Jesus is about to offer. So there is a parable Jesus shares and at the end- Jesus says to the woman - “your sins are forgiven”…. Then the whole table of high end guests are shelled shocked - and collective judgment sets in - “who does this guy think he is ?!” And God knowing their reaction seals this moment with these final words to her…. “ Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.” This moment. I hold on to it.

“I stand at the door and knock”. “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” ~ Jesus “I am so glad He’s not a wall. You don’t have to climb over anything to get to Him. You don’t have to crawl through a tunnel. The door is open. The invitation is extended. But it’s the only door.” ~ Johnny Ardavanis, Dial In Ministries

It is staggering to think about … How much God did to create a world and all the billions of creatures - hung it in a vast universe to love us … How God comes to earth, as fortold in ancient history, coming here as Jesus - suffers with us and for us and chooses to die for us …. And astonishingly rose to life and changed history —- How God, through the Holy Spirit, challenges my deepest conscious thoughts on a daily basis through the Bible - that is a cohesive set of written books over 1500 years - by many authors - pointing to forgiveness in Jesus - and that each time I pick it up- transforms how I think moment to moment.

@WatchChad So hard this world. So much sin. And pride of sin. Yet - “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” Romans 5:8.
