CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL
LET US BE EXTRAVAGANT
Let us not hope to get God's attention if we are not willing to break schemes.
THIS morning at the service, with great prudence a man a little older in age compared to me approached me, and he almost secretly told me that my worship of God had inspired him and that he felt ministered by my attitude. And it is that being willing to worship God in spirit and truth, challenges us to perform acts and do things out of the ordinary and we will easily be treated as extravagant. But this is definitely not new for me, in my lifestyle, I have decided to be a worshiper 24/7 and, although it sounds idyllic, the truth is that I am dreaming and at the same time, I am worshiping God. What I try is to pour out my soul in front of my Beloved, in the same way that Maria de Bethany did.
“But while he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, and sitting at the table, a woman came with an alabaster glass of very expensive perfume of pure tuberose; and breaking the alabaster vase, she poured it on her head. "
Mark 14. 3
Lazarus, Martha and Maria, were the childhood friends of Jesus and now in the hours before the sacrifice of Christ, Maria will commit one of the most extravagant acts that I have been able to read. She had a bottle of tuberose perfume, a very expensive scent, about $2,000 today. Maria did not doubt at any time, she poured it into Jesus Christ, as a living offering to whom she would give everything for humanity. But as always, when we are surrounded by religious, she was criticised by others. What the people did not know was the revelation of the Master's death that she had previously had. Mary gave her life in that libation, she gave the most valuable, the most precious possession of her, she poured out her entire life in the presence of the Creator.
"And there were some who became angry within themselves, and said: Why has this waste of perfume been made?"
Mark 11. 14
Criticism and mockery are going to be guaranteed. However, we have to have the conviction that what we do is for God. God is the rewarder of all those who seek him in spirit and in truth. Let's not be afraid to be extravagant and to worship God at all times and in all situations. This is something that God always rewards and seeks from human beings.
God bless you.
