- John 8:9-11


Humans have a natural desire to create hierarchy. A pecking order where some are socially elevated and others pushed down, most times for no real apparent reason other than made up criteria of looks, money, height and a whole slew of other things we think are important. We like to judge; we canโ€™t help ourselves. Itโ€™s an illusion but one that we tend to whole heartedly believe.

The women in the bible had been caught in the act of adultery. She was pulled to the city center, surrounded, accused, and condemned in short order. Stones were picked up as the judges readied themselves to carry out the punishment of death. They saw her as the lowest of the low, deserving of death. She believed it also.

Then Jesus came along, and with a very simple observation and statement, โ€œwhomever is without sin cast the first stoneโ€, he lifted her up from the dirt of society to eye level. He showed her, her accusers, and the entire town that she was neither better nor worse than anyone there. She was human, equal, deserving of forgiveness and love.


For this women, emotional healing started with her seeing herself through Gods eyes. For the accusers, emotional healing started with them seeing themselves through Godโ€™s eyes.


We are human, we are in this together, neither better nor worse, all deserving of love, respect, and forgiveness. โ€œFor all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.โ€ฆโ€ โ€“ Romans 3:23.


Dear Lord, help us to see ourselves and others through your eyes so that we can accept and love ourselves and all those around us. Amen
