In God’s economy, the most loving person is the most forgiven person.
This wonderful truth means that the even the most selfish, sinful, cynical person can be changed through the simple act of forgiveness.
Sadly, this also means that the gentlest, most loving person will change when left in a state of unforgiveness. Unforgiveness results in a discounted love, an embargoed love – always reserved for a rainy day yet insufficient even for today.
As Christians, we must never lose sight of the cross of Jesus Christ. There we find full and final forgiveness. There we receive God’s abundant love written in the blood of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven – for she loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.
Luke 7:47
