1 Saturday, evening Bethany
Preparing Jesus for Burial Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. —John 12:3
Love can make you do crazy things. I’ve come across many anecdotes of people doing really foolish, even dangerous, things, in the name of love—like a husband and wife who were so in love that they had plastic surgery so that they would look exactly alike! Each of us have our own tales to tell, of how we did things we thought we would never do because of love. As Bob Dylan, award winning singer-songwriter and 2016 Nobel Prize Literature laureate, astutely observed, “You can’t be wise and be in love at the same time.”
