3 While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial of very costly perfume of pure nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over His head.
4 But some were indignantly remarking to one another, "Why has this perfume been wasted?
5 "For this perfume might have been sold for over three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor." And they were scolding her.
This woman truly understood the Lordship of Jesus. As king, He deserves and owns all that we have. Nothing that we have is ours. It is through the sovereignty of God that we have what blessings we have. Rather than complaining about what we don't have or what we want, we should instead constantly lift our blessings to God, giving Him all due glory.
I just realized I have 3 midterms next week. Ruh rohhhhh.
