Daily Reflection: Today’s reading places us in a seat at the table of an exciting dinner – to say the least. Alongside Jesus and others, there is a woman who is caught up in sin. The text does not tell us exactly what kind of sin she was committing; however, we can see that it was enough to prompt her to come to Jesus for help. To make it even more interesting, the woman breaks an expensive jar of perfume and washed the feet of Jesus, all while her hair is down. In the First Century, this was seen as inappropriate in society. Not only was this woman willing to come to Jesus, but she was willing to do it in an extremely vulnerable way.
Daily Demonstration: One of the things that can quickly stop us from pursuing the Lord is the fear of public humiliation. As evidenced in the dinner story, the woman was so desperate for Jesus that she didn’t care what others thought of her in the process. Maybe this is where we need to be – so desperate for Jesus that we are willing to let go of our reputation. Tomorrow, we will begin a 21 day fast. What a perfect opportunity to come against the distractions of life and be completely vulnerable in the presence of the Lord! What kinds of things are you be willing to set aside if it meant a deeper relationship with Christ? How can these things be laid aside in a season of prayer and fasting?
