She has done this for the day of My burial (John 12:4-8)

Mary knew that Jesus was going to die, and so she was compelled to offer this extravagant gift of devotion to Jesus. Mary had more insight than others because she spent time at the feet of Jesus. This was the moment at which Jesus was symbolically set apart for burial by one who really understood what was happening.

JESUS, I have always loved this story and want to be like Mary. Her devotion was so remarkable; her passion, her humility and her insight into Who You are. I can only imagine the look of love You must have shown to her at this moment – a connection that was forever made, an understanding deep within the heart of the Lover of our souls and the one loved. An eternal moment captured in time. Thank You, for allowing me to witness and participate in such tenderness and intimacy.
