In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. -Matthew 5:16

What a sacrificial heart.
![]() While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of a man known as Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head. Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, "Why this waste of perfume? It could have been sold for more than a year's wages and the money given to the poor." And they rebuked her harshly. "Leave her alone," said Jesus. "Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial. I tell you the truth, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her." -Mark 14:3-10 We should always give our very best to Jesus, irregardless of what we are doing. This unknown woman has truly set an example by breaking the alabaster jar of pure nard which can be sold for more than a year's wages and pouring it on Jesus' head for his burial. Since Jesus died on the cross for us and suffered so much, giving our best for the Kingdom cannot be compared to the pain he endured, simply because he has faith that he will be saved. In the same way, we should have the faith to continue walking on with God and trust that what we have done will pay off and we will meet Him in Heaven one day. We may face persecutions along the way, but as long as we persevere and have faith in God that He will guide us through everything. And also let's spur each other on in this race. :D -Jamie |
May His light shine,
