Mary chose to pay homage to You Lord, ahead of all of the tasks at hand. Despite other's feelings that she was wasting expensive oil and in the face of dangers posed by the chief priests who hated You, she used the oil to annoint Your feet. She used her hair to dry them. Lord help us to choose to cherish your presence while we are living, despite all distractions and dangers. Like Mary, our hope is the reward of everlasting life with You. Amen. |
