Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven—for she loved much. But he who is forgiven little, loves little.” Luke 7:47
Extravagant worship has at times made me cringe. When I realized it is not a show for my benefit but an expression of deep love for what God has done in someone else’s life, I admit I’m a little bit ashamed of my own worship.
Here she was in a place she didn’t belong.
Doing something that would make most uncomfortable.
Yet she was humbled at the feet of Jesus offering all that she had despite the cost.
She knew what her past held and what she was forgiven of.
She knew her past preceded her and what might be said of her.
But she had to go anyway.
She had to honor her Lord.
She was compelled to anoint Him and wash His feet because of her great love for Him.
I want to love extravagantly. I know what Christ has forgiven me of. I want to have an outward expression of worship for Him, like I do in my spirit. I want to express love to Him from the depths of who I am who, and who I see Him as.
What stops me Lord?
Lord, I want my love, my worship and my praise to reflect my appreciation for all that you have done for me. I want it to show who you are in my life. Set aside anything that holds me back from giving it all to you.
This song came to mind as I thought about extravagant worship. Enjoy! Video borrowed from ForGodSoLoved777.
