In Luke 7:36-50, Jesus is having a meal in a Pharisee’s home, when a woman who has “lived a sinful life” comes in. She stands behind Jesus and weeps, washes his feet with her tears, dries them with her hair, kisses them and pours expensive perfume over them.

Notice how deeply Jesus sees both this woman, and the Pharisee. You too are invited to deepen your gaze as you engage in these 20 minutes of prayer.

Contemplative at Home offers a guided prayer experience drawing on Ignatian spirituality and Lectio Divina.
