Devotion:
Read John 8:1-11.
Jesus loved people. He was not concerned with class or nationality, past sins or present accomplishments. This incident demonstrates Jesus’ love for those condemned by others. This woman was assumed to be outside of any connection with God and yet Christ loved and forgave. Christ desires to reconcile those who others have “written off”. God’s role is to judge, not ours. Our job is to show forgiveness and compassion to others, no matter what.
Personal Worship Option:
Reflect on your personal attitude toward others? Are you quick to judge? Are you distant from God? Know He longs to bring you close. Reach out to God and reach out to others.
