Of love and need

Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet. You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment. Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” And he said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” (Luke 7:44-48 ESV)

Our love relies on how much we are in need. And no matter what, we must remind ourselves, humble ourselves, to the fact that we are always in need of Christ our savior. We are only made righteous to our Creator and Provider through him, and all that we need and have relies on our God. So let us always be in need of knowing and being with our God, and in turn our love grows deeper and deeper.

And he said to the woman, “Your FAITH has saved you; go in peace.” (Luke 7:50 ESV)
