Something that made me laugh during service...
So we were having our scripture reading today...
Mark 14
^3 While He was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of a man known as Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on His head.
^4 Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, "Why this waste of perfume? ^5 It could have been sold for more than a year's wages and the money given to the poor." And they rebuked her harshly.
So it got me thinking, if the setting were to be in a modern day context, the only liquid that costs a year's wages is... printer ink. Well, I wouldn't want to pour ink it over Jesus.
Just a random thought during service. Blessed Palm Sunday guys!
