To whom much is forgiven the same loves more

“I tell you, her sins–and they are many–have been forgiven, so she has shown me much love. But a person who is forgiven little shows only little love.” Luke 7:47. Now in my few years of experience under His grace I have come across a few very passionate and loving people to God and His people. I always wondered how they came to love the Lord so much to the extent of going to greater lengths for His glory. But somehow I have come to understand them, like this woman these are people who have come to terms with God’s grace. I can almost say for sure that the extent of man’s love towards God and His people depends on how such a man has understood His grace. It is not that some people have more sins than others before God (subject to discussion) but that these have seen the gravity of their sin and are only starting to comprehend the grace of God to love such vile souls. They cannot help but love Him, they cannot help but share of His love; meditate and speak of Him all day long. I hope you may come to understand the grace of God and to know the extent of His love because if you do then no one will tell you what to do for the gospel, you will only realise how little you can do and marvel more at His grace. #His grace calls for love
