"And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them." ( Luke 15:2)
There was a man who came to a virtuous woman and told her of a wounded man who lay dying. He needed her help, yet, this man was in a less than virtuous place. Acknowledging this to her, and as if the very asking was asking virtue to stoop to a lowly place to help a dying man, she went.
She bound up the wounds of the dying man. Her work saved the man.
Love does not always look right. Jesus received sinners, and ate with them. To the Pharisees and Scribes, this did not look right.
Jesus talked to the woman at the well, alone, and she was a Samaritan. To the disciples, this did not look right.
Love does not always look right.
Jesus healed people in the temple, in synagogues, along roadsides, in houses, and in mountains and graveyards. Jesus healed from the cross; to one beside him on the cross, to those standing beneath His cross.
Love does not always look right, but love is always right.
