Quiet Time Notes
Notes from my daily Quiet Times with GodJesus with People - Seeing and Not Seeing

Luke 7:36-50 - Simon, I have something to tell you
Jesus is able to cut through the muck - right to the heart
He had outspoken clarity - Luke 7:40
In truth Simon saw neither the woman or himself for how they really were
Jesus did see the woman - Her sin was obvious as her brokenness
He actions came from her new sense of reality
Once she saw Jesus, she responded the only way she could have - compelled by love - 2 Corinthians 5:14
Jesus' words should have cut Simon deeply - But he who has been forgiven little lives little
He wants to have a relationship with us
Think of trying to have a relationship with ant - talking with it, caring for it and especially dying for it - it is unfathomable!
How many times did Jesus change people's view if God?
Who am I most like: Simon or the sinful woman?
