Your Faith Has Made You Well預覽
Forgiven and Free
Most of us have carried something so heavy that it feels like it’s pulling us down. For my wife, it is her travel backpack—I'm not sure what she packs, but it is HEAVY. When I carry it for her, she feels relief and freedom.
However, the weight we might carry isn't limited to a bag or physical object. We carry unforgiveness, too, which can feel just as heavy.
Unforgiveness clings to our hearts and pulls us down. It blocks our relationships with others and, more importantly, our relationship with God. But Jesus offers freedom—not just from sin but from the burdens of guilt and shame.
In Luke 7:36-50, we meet a woman who understood the weight of guilt and shame. This woman, well known as a sinner, shows up for a meal at a religious leader’s home because she heard Jesus was there. And she came knowing others would judge and condemn her.
What happened when she arrived was shocking and appalling to those in attendance, especially the homeowner. But Jesus saw it differently.
He saw her full of faith and in a posture of repentance, weeping and anointing His feet with her tears and expensive perfume—even kissing His feet. Jesus saw her actions as an expression of deep faith and love. He acknowledged her faith, saying, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
This wasn’t just about being forgiven—it was about complete restoration. This woman was given a fresh start spiritually and emotionally. The weight of her sin was removed—she was forgiven and free.
Faith in Jesus forgives us of our past mistakes and frees us from the shame that tries to cling to us and hold us back. It opens the door to a new life filled with peace.
When you bring your brokenness to Jesus in faith, you are restored to who God created you to be.
Where do you need to experience God’s forgiveness? What burdens are you carrying? Bring them to Jesus in faith, trusting He can heal, forgive, and restore you. Let His forgiveness free you today, and walk in the peace He promises.
Today’s prayer…
Lord, like the woman who came to You in faith, I bring my brokenness to You. Thank You for Your forgiveness, which restores and sets me free. Amen.
Tomorrow, we’ll explore how bold faith opens the door to miracles, even when it seems impossible.
