The Apostle to the Apostles :)

“An ancient Christian tradition calls Mary Magdalene  the ‘Apostle to the apostles’ ”.  She was called this because she brought the apostles the news of the Resurrection.”  But many of the men did not believe her!

It takes great courage to share news, even Great News, with those who don’t believe you.

In the “Woman of the Bible Speak” book, it also tells us of how Mary was rescued by Jesus from the seven demons that possessed her.  And yet it goes on to say, ‘the one who has experienced the greatest forgiveness will love the most.”

So perhaps when we see someone who appears to be doing great harm, we need to remember that one day they may seek forgiveness, and love God and God’s People really well ?.

We meet people for a season of their life, or perhaps just one day.  We, all of us, would hate to be judged on our worst day, so perhaps we shouldn’t judge others either. That job belongs to God and God alone.

Instead, when we see someone doing harm, perhaps we can remember how Jesus forgave us ?
