“I was a woman in the city known as a sinner. When I heard that Jesus was eating in the house of Simon the Pharisee, I brought an alabaster box of ointment. I stood at his feet behind him weeping, and I began to wash his feet with my tears and wipe them with the hairs of my head. I kissed his feet and anointed them. Simon thought that if Jesus were a prophet, he would know what kind of woman I was. Jesus said, "Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much." Then he told me, "Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace." The one who is forgiven much loves much.”
The woman who washed his feet with her tears ยท Luke 7:36-50
