Then said Jesus, Let her alone:
against the day of My burying hath she kept this. (John 7:7)
I can imagine that Mary thought
that if she waited until Jesus was dead she might not have a chance to anoint
His body, and so she came before His death to anoint Him.
There is a lesson there. How
very kind and thoughtful we are to a family that has lost some member, and what
kind words are said after the person is dead and gone! Would it not be better
to say a few of those good things before they go? Wouldn’t it be well to give
some of your bouquets before a man dies, and not go and load down his coffin?
