 Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.” Luke 7:44-47 NIV

What water do we give to Jesus? We can give Him our heart and outwardly show it through baptism. The believer is ”showered” with the Holy Spirit. Just as the woman kissed the feet of Jesus, we who believe are in adoration of our Lord. We are kissed with many a blessing from the Lord. Just as the Lord was anointed by the woman, we are anointed with the healing which only the Lord can provide. Be ever mindful of all which is provided to you by the Lord.
