—John 12:1-8

Much can be learned from this Godly woman, Mary. She always found herself close to Jesus. When she poured the costly oil upon Jesus' feet, she demonstrated humility and adoration towards Jesus. Many times we will gladly offer things to God that don't require too much of us. But we find difficulty in offering things to God that are very costly or require sacrifice. Mary did just this-she offered Jesus something that was very costly and of great value. Let us offer to God only those things that require of us some sort of sacrifice and value rather than the things we don't regard as much.
