John 8:10-11 NASB

"Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?" She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "I do not condemn you either. Go. From now on, do not sin any longer."

When the religious leaders stood accusing the woman who committed adultery, Jesus' response was remarkable. Jesus stooped down and started writing in the dirt. His action of stooping in the dirt literally defines one interpretation of the word grace.

They all stood casting judgment, but Jesus removed himself from the accusers, stooping low. He did not participate in the crowd's judgment. Instead, he said, "Let him who has never sinned cast the first stone." And since He was the only one who had not sinned, His actions of not casting the first stone showed so much grace, so much forgiveness, and redemption. He stooped low to lift her shame.

I've actually read this passage so many times and have heard so many people preach and teach on it, but this is the first time reading this about Jesus' lowering Himself so He could raise her.

But Jesus did this a few times during His ministry, remember? He removed His outer clothing and tied a towel around his waist to wash the feet of the disciples. Let me say that again, JESUS REMOVED HIS GLORY. He took off His crown and humbled and lowered Himself to wash the feet of His disciples.

He took our place and died on the cross for each of us -- the ultimate sacrifice and ultimate act of love and humility.

God is so good, even in our despair. When we feel our lowest in guilt, shame, anxiety, depression, or loneliness, remember Jesus is meeting you right where you are -- so He can lift you up.
