Extravagant Love

John 12:1-22 From the other gospels we know that Jesus had been telling them that the Son of Man must be delivered up for crucifixion. He was very clear about this. We also know that the disciples did not want to hear this and it seems evident that they didn’t fully grasp what He was saying. But Mary had learned the importance of sitting at His feet and listening to His words. But more than that, I’m convinced she heard His heart. “If You are to be crucified, then I will anoint You now for Your burial.” It was an act of extravagant love. Why did she love extravagantly? Because she understood how much Jesus loved her.
