John 12:1-11
Six days before the Passover, Jesus arrived at Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor, Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages. He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief, as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.
Leave her alone, Jesus replied. It was intended, that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial. You will always have the poor among you, but you will not always have me.
Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well, for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and putting their faith in him.
It was a quiet day at work… I got all my counts and scans done…
Went to lunch and read my book…
Called hubby about his interview and found out he had stopped by the store but he couldn’t find me as I was in the stockroom and didn’t hear my page…
Hubby said the interview went well and he learned even more on how to improve his interviewing… he however did not get the job as he doesn’t have any commission sales experience…
Tomorrow we all have a day off!!
We are going to the zoo to see the new African Spotted Necked Otters that opened this past Saturday…
Now we are watching cartoons with the boys…
The boys are playing with their DS handhelds…
I heated up taquitos, mini chimichangas, corn, beans and chips…
I have so much I could be doing… I still need to write a letter for the last Easter card… and the house is a mess since none of the boys in the house can clean it while I am at work…
I need to go put the leftovers away and straighten up the kitchen… then hubby and I can watch our shows in our room since the boys don’t like any of the same shows as us anymore… which is why I never wanted to get cable… too many choices…
Joyce Meyer Ministries
God has already given us peace, but we need to choose to walk in it. Will you walk in peace today?
Receive mercy, give mercy. Receive grace, give grace. God wants what He gives us to flow through us to others.
You can't take authority over your life if you don't have authority over a sink full of dirty dishes or a messy garage.
Today, Linda, we believe God wants you to know that ...
sleep and rest are all part of the divine order.
Don't make your waking life and responsibilities so important that you neglect the very real benefits of sleep, rest, and dreaming. The night is your time of restoration. It is essential. God made both day and night for a reason.
