Jesus Was Anointed in Bethany
March 23, 2025
Passage: Mark 14:3-11
Jesus was having dinner at a man’s house. Many people were
there, including Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, Jesus’ friends.
Mary had a beautiful jar and filled it with special oil. Then Mary
went to Jesus.
Mary broke the jar and poured the expensive oil on Jesus’ head.
Mary began to cry and her tears dripped on Jesus’ feet. Mary
began to wash Jesus’ feet with her tears. Then Mary dried Jesus’
feet with her long hair. Mary kissed Jesus’ feet. Mary covered
Jesus’ feet with the special oil.
Oh, how Mary loved Jesus!
The people at the dinner were shocked. They thought Mary had
wasted the special oil.
Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has done a wonderful thing
for Me. This woman washed My feet and wiped them with her hair.
She hasn’t stopped kissing My feet, and she has covered them
with oil. You did none of these things. People will remember the
love this woman has shown for Me.”
The people in the house watched these things and wondered
about Jesus’ words.
