Your Faith has Saved You

Cardinal Joseph Tobin:

“Jesus said to the woman who anointed his feet, “Your sins are forgiven.” The others at table said to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” But he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace” (cf. Lk 7:36–50).

"Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.” We come to you, Loving Mother, seeking your assistance. Help us in our times of need.

Amen

 Lord, how easy it can be to be like Simon—to look down on others and judge them. Please make me keenly aware of my own need for grace and salvation. Give me wisdom and charity in my dealings with others.
