Penitence Worth Seeing
Luke 7:44
And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, See you this woman? I entered into your house, you gave me no water for my feet…


Not only with the bodily eye, for with that he saw and mistook, but with consideration and observation. The deportment of a true penitent is worth our seeing; their carriage and conversation is worthy observation.

(N. Rogers.)
