DAY FIVE
A SECOND CHANCE
The story of the adulterous woman is often told as a lesson in judging others, but at its core, it is a story of Jesus’s compassion and forgiveness. It’s a story that may show us a pivotal turn in someone’s life as a result of love and forgiveness. The Bible does not make mention of the woman again in the Bible, but I’d like to imagine that she used her second chance for a greater life.
That day, others judged her and treated her poorly based on her sinful acts. Her accusers felt she alone deserved death for a sin that took two to commit. There she stood, alone, scared, embarrassed, and near death. I am sure that God had handed down the very law she broke, she didn’t expect Jesus, the son of God, to forgive her and spare her life. Jesus did just that, He spared her from life, both on earth and in heaven.
Jesus was sent to us to save us both in this life and the next. His compassion and forgiveness saved the adulterous woman and gave her the opportunity to turn from a life of sin and walk in the blessing of forgiveness.
The same forgiveness that was offered to the adulterous woman, is also available to us. No matter how embarrassing our sin may be or the unfair circumstances that may have brought us into sin, God forgives us. All we have to do is give God both our sin and our shame and walk freely in him.
