Like the Ten Lepers – v7

A lesson incomplete
this healing of the leaders;
hearing the words of Jesus
dropping their stones in the dust
at the feet of Christ

Not able to stone her, this woman,
not one claiming to be righteous;
Yet like the ten lepers
only the woman alone
there with Him

All alone with Jesus
hearing the rest of His message;
to leave her life,
like us in sin
all of her days

We like her, like the ten lepers,
we must repent and be healed
to be fully restored;
none of them heard Him
she alone was with Christ
