Every Word – She Kissed His Feet

Grateful for grace…

“…stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.”
– Luke 7:38 NKJV

It was customary in Jesus day in Jesus culture 
to wash the feet of honored guests Simon the  

pharisee failed to provide that courtesy when 
Jesus visited his home but a woman who invited  

herself to Simon’s home took it upon herself to 
wash Jesus feet with her tears Luke 7:38 says  

she stood at his feet behind him weeping and she 
began to wash his feet with her tears and wiped  

them with the hair of her head and she kissed his 
feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil she  

fell at Jesus feet considered to be very much 
a less honorable part of the body in Jesus day  

and showed him great honor Jesus explained that 
she loved much because she’d been forgiven much  

forgiveness is a seriously big deal knowing 
God has forgiven your sins should impact you  

remember to always be grateful for grace
