[Discoveries] 11-19-07 God remembers -- Mark 14:6

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*"Leave her alone," said Jesus. "Why are you bothering her? She has 
done a beautiful thing to Me." -- Mark 14:6*/

Jesus cut through the fog of moral confusion and found the one thing 
that mattered: Here was a woman who loved God.

We all know the story. A woman breaks open a bottle of perfume worth a 
year's wages and anoints Jesus. Those present tried to shame her for her 
impractical devotion. But Jesus comes to her rescue.

Her extravagance was well-placed, says Jesus. It earned her a place in 
history.

This is the joy of serving God. He won't be boxed in, and neither will 
He allow His children to be boxed in by someone else's rigid 
requirements. He drinks in our expressions of love for Him, as many and 
as varied as they are. They mean something to Him.

Your act of worship will not be forgotten.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
