THE DELIVERY OF A WOMAN THROUGH A FRAGRANCE

in #steemchurch6 years ago

Tells the story that a long time ago, in the midst of a convulsed society, surrounded by people with hard hearts, incredulous and cold looks, there was an episode that managed to captivate and break with any scheme imposed by that culture.

In those times, the woman did not have a place in society, for which, she was condemned and judged in case of passing the imposed limits.

But there was a woman who shook this condemning society, that with a simple act, I manage to change the course of its history, of its life, and also today you can change yours.

In those days Jesus visited Lazaro, in Bethany, who had resuscitated the dead and were spending a moment of jubilation with a dinner in honor of the Lord Jesus.

At that moment, in the midst of a crowd of people, a woman was making her way. The silence of adueño of the place, she, with the glance put only in Jesus, I spill before his feet the only thing that considered valuable in his life; a perfume of pure tuberose. This perfume had a lot of value, it was not easy to have one of them as property and surely if it was spilled, maybe, it could not be recovered again.

But this woman, before the look of condemnation of the crowd, decided, without saying a word, to go to whom it was worth spilling that perfume, and with tears in her eyes, crying before the feet of the Lord, and wiping her with her hair, he realized that he had not spilled it in vain.

The perfume would last until eternity, and its history in the memory of all.

Our Lord has given us a life, a bottle of perfume with a beautiful and beautiful fragrance and a great value. And how many times have we got confused and spilled that beautiful perfume in other places but not before the Lord?

This woman is the symbol of total surrender, of a complete abandonment to Christ.

This woman did not care what others thought, many believed that it was a waste and a waste of great value. But she continued forward, leaving behind everything that kept her from being close to Her Lord.

And I ask you: What situations, friends, customs, habits, keep you away from Jesus?

Do not you think that many times because you do not want to be out of place, in the circle and what seems to be good for some, you choose wrongly where to spill and invest your life?

How important it is to know where you are and where you are going!
Dear friend, on this day, I invite you to reflect, about your life, about your days, your actions and decisions, and that just like that woman or like Ruth, you travel a new path leaving behind, customs, deceptions and you go to that place where your decision will be rewarded and you can become today and always a woman, a man of complete dedication.

Take care of your perfume today!
