A Sinful Woman

A Sinful Woman

Labeled.  Shunned.

     Stripped of self-worth;

     Lonely and hurt,

     She begged from her heart.

Judged.  Condemned.

     By fellow men;

     Defined by her sins,

     She came to repent.

Cheap.  Broken.

     Surrendered her dignity;

     There at His feet,

     She began to weep.

Saved.  Grateful.

     Despite transgressions;

     And stained reputation,

     Her debt was forgiven.

(based on Luke 7:36-50 – Jesus Anointed By A Sinful Woman)

Thanks to God Girl’s recent post about this passage, this story was fresh in my mind.  When I saw the Trifecta prompt, this was the first thing to come to my mind.

The Trifecta Week 20 prompt is cheap with the following definition:
cheap adj \ˈchēp\ – (a) of inferior quality or worth : tawdry, sleazy <cheapworkmanship> (b) contemptible because of lack of any fine, lofty, or redeeming qualities <feeling cheap>
