Scripture:
Mark 14:4
There were some who said to themselves indignantly, “Why was the ointment wasted like that?
Observation:
People thought that the woman’s expensive sacrifice was a waste.
Application:
We learn in this story that no matter how much is given; time, energy, money, stuff, it is never wasted on Jesus.
Why?
A couple reasons…
-Jesus is worthy of everything because of who He is.
-Jesus is worthy because what he has done. For the woman, He raised her brother and gave her a new life. For us, he rose again and have us a new life.
We can never give too much of anything to honor and worship Jesus. Not everyone will understand, but it doesn’t matter. We should give anyway.
Prayer:
Jesus, my time, relationships, money and stuff are yours. You deserve it for who you are and what you’ve done.
