1 Timothy 4:12-16; Ps. 111; Luke 7:36-50

See this woman

This is a poignant story of an extraordinary encounter between an anonymous woman and Jesus. A story of the hospitality of Jesus and of love exchanged. Here is an outcast who dares because she is desperate. This reminds me of the migrant refugees, especially the thousands of women and children in the poor, cramped boats. Daring and desperate. Talk with Jesus about this. What small response can you dare to make to this reality in our world?
