"Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil." (John 12:3)
When we pour the oil of honor and precedence on our Lord Jesus Christ, all whose hearts are open to Him will perceive, "....the house...filled with the fragrance of the oil."
I suggest today that the Church will "smell" more and more, "the fragrance," of His Presence if the Church more and more pours, "....very costly oil of," worship, honor and glory upon Jesus, "All should honor the Son just as they honor the Father." (John 5)
Father, in Jesus' Name, thank You that even though no one could or can ever "see" You, You appeared in all Your Glory in Jesus. May Your Church walk through the earth, pouring the, "very costly oil," upon You. Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
