We live in such a selfish world and so many people, rather than blame themselves, place the blame on others. Today, we hear the familiar story of a woman caught in adultery. After His encounter with her, Jesus did not condemn her, but (after she confessed), He forgave her sins and commanded her to “go and sin no more."

We hear of this woman’s journey summarized as:  caught, brought and besought.

Jesus wants to change us from the inside out. He wants us to be without guilt, forgiven, cleansed and set free from the burden of our sins.
