Revelation 7:12 ...Amen! Praise and Glory and Wisdom and Thanks and Honor and Power and Strength be to our God for ever and ever Amen!
The closer we draw to God's throne in our worship, the more we will begin to see that everything belongs to Jesus. There are days when we see only a little of Jesus because we are giving him only a measured portion in our worship. We think of the time in His presence as being a large slice of our day, while the rest is reserved for us. But when we give Jesus all, we will step into His almighty presence and begin to see more of who He really is and what He has done. Jesus is so amazing!
Mary may have never thought about the cost of the perfume in her alabaster jar as she poured it out, but Judas knew the price exactly, and thought it was too much. All our praise, all our life, all our strength, all our plans, all our rewards,and all our hopes are not enough to lavish on Him. When we come to Jesus we can decide to give him his portion or we can decide to give him all. We can measure out a bit of the alabaster jar's perfume, or we can lavish all our praise on Him. Let's pass from earth into heaven with nothing left in our alabaster jars. He is so worthy of it all!!
