The woman with the alabaster box took time to minister to the Lord. We can’t stop ministering to the Lord in turbulent times. They were getting ready to crucify Jesus, and life appeared to be soo uncertain as the days progressed. Now think about his ministry as things are transpiring today. He did what he did so that we could come through our trials and live. For through the years, he has been our help, our comfort, our strength, our wisdom, our joy, our peace, our preservation. Let’s not turn and become callous, through tribulations, but earnestly look at what he has done. Let’s minister to the Lord.
Mark 14:3-9
3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.
4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.
7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
