The goodness and mercy of our blessed Redeemer had so happy an effect on the adulteress, that, according to the opinion of the holy fathers and commentators, she was thereby sincerely converted. Similar condescension on our parts may produce similar effects. A seasonable mercy has often reclaimed those, on whom severity could never operate. Another useful instruction may be drawn from this gospel, that into whatever grievous sins we may behold others fall, we must not therefore despise them, or be elated ourselves. Such persons require our pity, and our prayers; from their misfortunes we ought to learn to take care that we do not fall into greater crimes; and, that if we do not, it is not owing to ourselves, but to the grace of God, which can easily convert them, and from grievous sinners make them greater saints, like Mary Magdalen. Whilst on the other hand, those who have fairly started on the road to holiness, may by pride, and too great a confidence in themselves become great sinners. Judas from an apostle became an apostate, and betrayed his Master. From the moment we think ourselves secure, we may date the commencement of our fall. We can find no security but in the grace of God, for which we must daily pray, saying lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. We must carefully improve and faithfully co-operate with the grace of God, that by good works we may make our calling and election sure. PRAYER.
